Why Connecticut Radiology Practices Need Specialized Billing

Connecticut's healthcare market includes 13,000+ physicians, and radiology practices here face a payer market dominated by Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield on the commercial side and HUSKY Health on the public payer side. Medicare claims are processed through Novitas Solutions, which applies its own Local Coverage Determinations that directly affect radiology procedure coverage and medical necessity requirements. Generic billing teams without CT specific knowledge leave revenue on the table.

Radiology billing itself is complex. Radiology coding requires understanding of professional (mod 26) vs technical (mod TC) component billing, contrast administration rules (with/without/both), and the complex coding for interventional radiology procedures. When you combine this coding complexity with Connecticut's specific payer rules, authorization requirements, and 1 HUSKY Health managed care plans that each have their own billing rules, you need a team that understands both dimensions. Go Medical Billing provides that expertise at 2.49% of collections, serving radiology practices from Hartford to Bridgeport and across Connecticut.
