Cardiology

Your Financial Health is Our Priority

UnisLink is more than just a medical billing service—we’re an extension of your practice. We combine deep industry expertise in Cardiology RCM with powerful technology to tackle these challenges head-on, so you can focus on what matters most: improving patient outcomes.

Our Cardiology RCM solutions address the top challenges for your specialty:

• High-Cost Diagnostic & Procedure Coding: Accurate coding for technical and professional components of tests like stress echoes, nuclear studies, and cardiac catheterizations is essential but highly scrutinized by payers. UnisLink’s expert coding ensures precise utilization of modifiers and CPT codes, maximizing legitimate reimbursement and minimizing audits.
• Workforce Shortages: Finding and retaining expert billers and coders with the specialized knowledge to manage interventional cardiology, device checks, and complex chronic care billing is costly. UnisLink gives you access to top-tier, specialty-focused talent at a fraction of the cost of hiring them yourself.
• Rising Operating Costs: The operational costs associated with in-office testing equipment, high-cost supplies, and specialized staffing continue to rise. UnisLink will dramatically reduce your Total Cost to Collect, helping you secure better margins.
• Chronic and Transitional Care Billing: Correctly billing for CCM, TCM, and remote monitoring services (RPM) requires rigorous compliance and documentation. UnisLink’s systems and expertise ensure compliant capture and billing for these crucial revenue streams.
• Technology Adoption: Staying current with the best RCM technology, especially integrating with complex cardiac EHR/PACS systems, is challenging. UnisLink’s proprietary Artificial Intelligence (AI), Analytics, and SmartHub Workflow systems seamlessly augment and deliver the best financial performance, regardless of the platform you’re using.

Our Key Differentiators for Cardiology:

• Proactive Denial Management: We don’t just react to denials; we prevent them. Our expert team identifies and resolves issues related to medical necessity, prior authorization for procedures, and NCCI edits before they result in a denial, significantly increasing your first-pass clean claim rate. When denials do happen, UnisLink’s advanced AI systems (CLARA™) help resolve and appeal them automatically.
• Specialty Coding Expertise: We have deep knowledge of CPT, ICD-10, and modifier usage specific to diagnostic imaging, interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, and device management (pacemakers/ICDs), eliminating common coding-related claim issues.
• Integration With Your EHR: We add important technological enhancements while working directly within your existing EHR to capture every billable service and streamline your workflow, from patient intake and testing to final payment.
• Effective Patient Collections: Our AI-driven patient collections process is automated and compassionate, making it easy for patients to pay their balances for services and procedures. Frequency and communication channel (text, email, paper statement, or phone) are determined uniquely for every patient to maximize propensity to pay.
• Total Transparency: With our Engage Analytics™ platform, you get real-time, transparent access to your practice’s financial health, giving you full visibility and control over your revenue cycle performance.
