Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Billing Services

Dastify Solutions helps oral and maxillofacial surgeons manage complex medical and dental claims through specialized coding, authorization tracking, denial management and revenue cycle support.

Our Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Billing Services

Medical and Dental Eligibility Verification

We review patient coverage, plan benefits, payer requirements and available coordination-of-benefits information to help determine the appropriate billing pathway before claim submission.

Medical-Dental Crossover Billing

We support claims that may qualify for medical coverage under applicable payer policies. Our team reviews diagnosis information, procedure coding, supporting records and payer-specific submission requirements without assuming medical reimbursement eligibility.

Surgical Coding and Claim Submission

We review available clinical documentation and billing data to support appropriate ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS and CDT code selection. Claims are checked against applicable payer requirements before submission.

Prior Authorization Management

Our team tracks authorization requests, approved services, effective dates and payer responses. We flag missing information and approaching deadlines so the practice can address issues before scheduled procedures or claim submission.

Payment Posting and Reconciliation

We post payments, contractual adjustments and patient responsibility using available remittance information. Unpaid or underpaid balances are identified for further review against the applicable contract and payer explanation.

Denial Management and A/R Recovery

We investigate denials involving eligibility, authorization, coding, documentation, coordination of benefits and timely filing. Our team supports corrections, resubmissions and eligible appeals while following outstanding balances through resolution or appropriate escalation.

Specialized Billing for Oral and Maxillofacial Procedures

Different OMS procedures require distinct coding, documentation and payer reviews. Our billing support covers:

Maxillofacial Trauma and Fracture Repair

Injury diagnoses, operative records, surgical procedures and applicable medical payer requirements.

Orthognathic and Corrective Jaw Surgery

Medical-necessity documentation, authorization requirements and procedure-specific claim review.

Oral Pathology and Cyst Removal

Diagnosis and pathology documentation, procedure coding and payer coverage requirements.

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Procedures

Plan exclusions, medical-necessity criteria, authorization rules and supporting clinical records

Reconstructive Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Surgical documentation, applicable medical coverage criteria and claim follow-up.

Dental Extractions and Related Surgery

Appropriate medical or dental claim routing based on the patient's coverage and the circumstances of treatment.

Coverage is determined by the applicable benefit plan and payer policy. Surgical classification alone does not establish medical reimbursement eligibility.

Medical-Dental Crossover Billing Without the Guesswork

Medical and dental claims follow different coverage rules, coding requirements and submission processes. For OMS practices, identifying the appropriate payer pathway is essential to preparing accurate claims. Dastify Solutions supports crossover billing by reviewing patient benefits, coordinating available medical and dental coverage information, checking applicable procedure and diagnosis codes, and identifying documentation or authorization requirements before submission. Our team also manages payer responses and follow-up when claims require corrections, additional information or further review.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is oral and maxillofacial surgery billing?

Oral and maxillofacial surgery billing involves preparing and submitting claims for surgical services affecting the mouth, jaws, face and related structures. Depending on the procedure and coverage, claims may involve medical insurance, dental insurance or applicable public programs.

Can oral surgery procedures be billed to medical insurance?

Some procedures may qualify for medical coverage when the clinical circumstances and payer requirements support it. Coverage depends on the patient's benefits, medical necessity, documentation and the insurer's policies. Not every surgical dental procedure is eligible for medical reimbursement.

Does Medicare cover oral and maxillofacial surgery?

Original Medicare covers certain medically necessary oral and maxillofacial surgical services. Routine dental services are generally excluded, although limited dental services may be covered when they meet Medicare's clinical-linkage requirements. Coverage depends on the specific service and applicable CMS rules.

Which coding systems are used in OMS billing?

OMS billing may involve ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes, CPT and HCPCS procedure codes, and CDT dental procedure codes. The applicable coding system depends on the service, payer and claim submission requirements.

Can Dastify Solutions manage existing OMS claim denials?

Yes. We can review assigned denied claims, investigate administrative causes, identify correction or appeal opportunities and follow up with payers. Recoverability depends on payer rules, filing deadlines, documentation and the circumstances of each claim.
