In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Dr. Ray Painter break down a new UnitedHealthcare policy that could impact payment for professional components of diagnostic services—including urodynamics and other PCTC-coded procedures—and what practices must document to avoid denials. The discussion outlines the need for clearly separated diagnostic reports with findings and impressions, as payers increase prepayment scrutiny. The key takeaway: as payer oversight intensifies, precise, structured documentation—and understanding how rules are applied—is essential to getting paid.
