Gastroenterology Billing That Helps Protect Your Revenue
Gastroenterology billing involves high-value procedures and complex coding rules, making it one of the specialties most affected by billing errors. From colonoscopy coding to screening vs. diagnostic distinctions, polyp removal add-ons, anesthesia coordination, and documentation requirements, even small mistakes can lead to denials or lost revenue.
SwiftMDs supports GI practices with accurate billing for endoscopy, colonoscopy, EGD, ERCP, polyp removal, and infusion therapy for Crohn’s and IBD patients. Our team helps manage screening-to-diagnostic conversion rules, anesthesia coordination, prior authorizations for high-cost biologics, and payer-specific requirements to improve clean claims and reimbursement.

Your claims are managed by billers and coders who understand colonoscopy coding, endoscopy billing, hepatology claims, and GI procedure add-ons. We help ensure each claim is coded accurately and aligned with payer-specific requirements.
GI Revenue Visibility
We help track AR, denial trends, underpayments, and claim performance by payer and procedure type. This gives your practice clearer insight into where revenue is delayed, lost, or ready for follow-up.
Senior RCM Support
You work with a team that understands GI billing patterns, payer behavior, and reimbursement challenges. Our support is built around gastroenterology workflows, not a generic billing process.

We work within your EHR, practice management, and endoscopy reporting systems to reduce manual entry and missed charges. This helps keep patient data secure while supporting cleaner claim submission.
Underpayment Detection & Appeals
We review contracted rates, CPT categories, payer payments, and underpaid claims to identify missed revenue. When needed, we prepare appeals and follow up with payers to support fair reimbursement.
GI Performance Reviews
We review denial causes, coding accuracy, authorization issues, underpayment trends, and procedure-level performance. These insights help your practice reduce repeat billing issues and improve revenue cycle results over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Many commercial payers require prior auth for colonoscopy, capsule endoscopy, upper GI series, and hepatology procedures. We submit auth requests with the clinical indication, prior treatment failures, and supporting endoscopy reports — and we track all open authorizations to prevent scheduling delays.
ERCP (43260–43278) and other complex GI procedures involve multiple components — sphincterotomy, stent placement, stone removal — each billable when separately documented. We review operative reports line by line to ensure every documented component is captured and billed, maximizing reimbursement on high-complexity cases.
Screening colonoscopies are performed for your benefit, and you'll likely be covered by insurance. Diagnostic colonoscopies are done when you're symptomatic or find something that doesn't look right. In order to ensure proper compensation, it's necessary to accurately describe the procedure.
