Why dermatology is different

Dermatology coding hinges on lesion size, site and pathology results, and on the cosmetic-versus-medical distinction: get the excision size or diagnosis wrong and you either underbill or trigger a review.

We code biopsies by technique, excisions by benign/malignant, size and location, destruction and Mohs surgery, split pathology into professional and technical components, and protect same-day E/M with modifier 25.

What our dermatology billing covers

  • Biopsies by technique: tangential, punch, incisional (11102–11107)
  • Lesion excisions by benign/malignant, size and body site
  • Destruction of lesions (17000/17110) and cryotherapy
  • Mohs micrographic surgery (17311+) staged and coded correctly
  • Pathology split into professional (26) and technical (TC) components
  • Same-day E/M protected with modifier 25; cosmetic vs medical flagged

Credentialing for dermatology

We enroll your dermatologists, Mohs surgeons and mid-levels, and get in-office pathology set up to bill.

  • Medicare (PECOS) & Medicaid enrollment for every provider
  • Commercial payer paneling matched to your patient mix
  • CAQH build, attestation & ongoing maintenance
  • Revalidations and re-credentialing tracked before they lapse
  • Enrollment for dermatologists, Mohs surgeons and mid-levels
  • In-office / dermatopathology lab enrollment where you read your own slides
