Charge entry mistakes that cost you revenue
Charge entry is where missed revenue hides. If a service never makes it into the system, it can never be paid.
Missed charges
Visits, procedures or supplies that are never entered are revenue lost for good.
Charge lag
Charges entered days or weeks late delay payment and risk timely filing limits.
Wrong units or fees
Incorrect units, quantities or fee schedules lead to underpayments and rejections.
Diagnosis pointers mismatched
Linking the wrong diagnosis to a procedure causes medical necessity denials.
Wrong place of service or provider
Incorrect POS, rendering or referring provider details cause denials and payment errors.
Duplicate charges
Charges entered twice trigger duplicate denials and confuse patient balances.

What is charge entry in medical billing?
Charge entry is the process of entering the services a provider performed into the billing system, including procedure and diagnosis codes, units, modifiers, fees and provider details. These charges become the claims sent to payers.
Why is charge entry important?
If a charge is missed, entered late or entered incorrectly, the practice is either not paid, paid late or paid less. Accurate charge entry is essential for complete and timely reimbursement.
What is charge lag?
Charge lag is the time between the date of service and the date the charge is entered. Shorter charge lag means claims are submitted sooner and payments arrive faster.
