FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Zoo Health different for dermatology billing?
Yes. We tailor workflows and denial strategies by specialty to protect revenue for high-value practices.
Do you handle dermatology CPT coding and MOHS surgery claims?
Yes. We manage CPT coding for dermatology procedures including biopsies, MOHS surgery, cosmetic dermatology services, and follow-ups. Certified coders review complex cases to maximize reimbursement and minimize errors.
Can you integrate with our medical billing software or Elation Health?
Yes. We prefer workflows with Elation Health and support a wide range of EHR and medical billing software. We handle CMS-1500 claims, charge capture, and payment posting while keeping front-office workflows aligned.
How do you reduce claim denials for dermatology providers?
We focus on accurate dermatology coding, insurance eligibility checks, timely claims submission, targeted denial appeals, and documentation reviews centered on medical decision making and medical necessity.
Will switching to Zoo Health disrupt my practice revenue?
No. Our onboarding uses a clean audit and phased transition to minimize disruption. Cash flow and patient billing continue with little to no interruption.
Do you provide patient-facing billing support?
Yes. All patient-facing billing support is handled onshore. We manage statements, questions, and payment posting without offshore call centers to protect patient trust.
How do you help cosmetic dermatology practices with reimbursement?
We clearly separate cosmetic (self-pay) services from medically necessary treatments, optimize coding, and implement documentation workflows that maximize revenue while staying compliant.
What reporting will my practice receive?
You’ll receive transparent dashboards covering collections, denial rates, AR aging, and appeals status—plus actionable insights to streamline your billing process.
Can Zoo Health help with denied claims and appeals?
Absolutely. Denial management is core to our service. We research denials, correct coding or documentation issues, resubmit claims, and file appeals when appropriate to recover lost revenue.
How do you price dermatology billing services?
We use percentage-based pricing tied to monthly collections. This aligns incentives and avoids flat-fee traps. Case-by-case incentives, such as 1–2 months of free billing, may be available during transition.
