Why New Hampshire Chiropractic Practices Need Specialized Billing

New Hampshire's healthcare market includes 4,000+ physicians, and chiropractic practices here face a payer market dominated by Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield on the commercial side and NH Medicaid on the public payer side. Medicare claims are processed through Novitas Solutions, which applies its own Local Coverage Determinations that directly affect chiropractic procedure coverage and medical necessity requirements. Generic billing teams without NH specific knowledge leave revenue on the table.

Chiropractic billing itself is complex. Chiropractic billing centers on chiropractic manipulative treatment (CMT) codes 98940-98943 with the critical AT modifier for Medicare active treatment. The distinction between active care and maintenance care determines coverage. Many services covered by commercial payers are excluded by Medicare. When you combine this coding complexity with New Hampshire's specific payer rules, authorization requirements, and 2 NH Medicaid 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 chiropractic practices from Manchester to Concord and across New Hampshire.
