Common Medical Billing Challenges Related To
Telemedicine
Medical technologies have developed not only in
terms of equipment but also in providing
healthcare services at the ease of ones
hand. Telemedicine is a term referring to giving
medical advice and prescriptions via video
calling or other convenient methods.   Tele-Medici
ne practice has reached to more than
three-fourths of the hospitals in the United
States. The practice of telemedicine reduces
costs and is convenient for the patient. The
combination of technology and healthcare skills
raises questions for the insurers as to how much
should they cover for their clients. Some
insurance companies cover the telehealth costs to
a certain extent, while others resist paying
anything.

 Specific conditions for reimbursement are
required Insurance firms have highlighted a few
requirements for the telehealth services to be
reimbursable. Medicare, the federal program
providing healthcare to differentially abled and
above 65 residents, requires the beneficiaries to
be living in certain rural or outside a
metropolitan statistical region to be considered
for reimbursement. Insufficient information about
various insurance providers  Although insurance
providers such as Medicare, Medicaid and private
insurance companies fall under the same
jurisdiction, the rules related to medical
billing of telehealth services may be completely
contrasting. Not all insurances have caught with
the trend of telemedicine, while others face
great discretion in setting a fixed value to
reimburse for telehealth facilities.

• Conclusion
• While attending to the funding obstacles, it
  would be a reasonable consideration that
  telemedicine has also provided effective results,
  as in the case of the decreasing number of
  patients in the emergency rooms. In this
  healthcare scenario, on the front-end, expert
  education of the medical practitioners should be
  considered.
• This will help the patient to gain useful
  knowledge and will lead to a decrease in the
  discretion of insurers for telemedical
  reimbursements.
