Telehealth Billing Services in Maryland

Maryland's healthcare market includes 22,000+ physicians, and telehealth practices here face a payer market dominated by CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield on the commercial side and HealthChoice on the public payer side. Medicare claims are processed through Novitas Solutions, which applies its own Local Coverage Determinations that directly affect telehealth procedure coverage and medical necessity requirements. Generic billing teams without MD specific knowledge leave revenue on the table.

Telehealth billing itself is complex. Telehealth billing requires precise modifier and place-of-service coding that varies by payer and state. The distinction between POS 02 (telehealth facility) and POS 10 (telehealth patient home) affects reimbursement rates. Modifier 95 designates real-time audio/video services, while modifier 93 covers audio-only visits. Remote patient monitoring codes 99453-99458 and telephone E/M codes 99441-99443 add further billing opportunities that many practices miss entirely. When you combine this coding complexity with Maryland's specific payer rules, authorization requirements, and 5 HealthChoice 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 telehealth practices from Baltimore to Bethesda and across Maryland.
