Addressing Financial Challenges in Neurosurgery
Neurosurgery billing and revenue cycle management come with numerous hurdles. Each payer has unique coding requirements, authorization policies, and fee schedules, making accurate billing both resource-intensive and mission-critical. Additionally, recent Medicare Physician Fee Schedule updates have reduced reimbursement for several key neurosurgical procedures, increasing financial pressure on practices.
Compounding these challenges are high malpractice premiums, capital-intensive technology, and complex compensation models. Without a CPA who understands the unique financial landscape of neurosurgery, even high-volume practices can fall short of their growth potential.
