Cardiology billing services in Maine

Sources checked: . Sources and review scope.

Cardiology billing services in Maine start with NGS, the Medicare contractor for jurisdiction JK. Its published coverage policies are one part of Medicare claim requirements. Policies can overlap across contractors, so payment under one contractor doesn't guarantee payment under another. We bill cardiology only, remotely from Texas, at 3% of collections with no contract.

How NGS pays cardiology in Maine

National Government Services, or NGS, processes Medicare claims for jurisdiction JK. That covers Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York.

NGS writes its own local coverage policies for echo, nuclear imaging and cardiac monitoring. They list the diagnoses that support a study and what the note has to show. A study that pays under one contractor can be denied under another.

We check the applicable policy before filing. If documentation appears incomplete, we flag it for the practice to review before submission. Only the treating clinician can determine or change clinical documentation.

Maine plans and billing

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield is the state's Blue Cross Blue Shield company. Commercial and Medicare Advantage requirements depend on the member's product, provider network and contract, so we verify the current plan before billing.

MaineCare is Maine's Medicaid program. The state publishes provider resources for claims, manuals, fee schedules, referrals and authorizations. We check current member eligibility and service-specific billing instructions rather than assume one route for every MaineCare claim.

Cardiology practices we serve in Portland, Bangor, Lewiston, Augusta

We're built for independent practices of 1 to 10 cardiologists with imaging in the office. That means echo and vascular labs, a nuclear camera, monitors and device checks.

Medicare pays Maine in two localities, Southern Maine and the rest of the state. The same echo pays differently in Portland and Bangor. We post each payment against the rate for your locality, not a state average.
