Home Health medical billing

Home health billing runs on OASIS assessments, physician certification windows, and PDGM case-mix groupings that shift with every 30-day period. Medflux keeps home health agencies aligned with episode timing, NOA/RAP submission deadlines, and the documentation trail Medicare actually reviews.

What trips up Home Health claims

Specialty edits that generic billers miss — and denials that keep recycling.

  • PDGM 30-day periods split payment by admission source, functional impairment, and clinical grouping — an error in any input drops the case-mix weight.
  • Notice of Admission (NOA) and RAP timely-filing windows create hard penalties when intake and billing are not synchronized.
  • Face-to-face encounter documentation and physician certification/recertification must align exactly with episode dates or the claim is at risk.
  • OASIS assessment timing and therapy-visit thresholds affect both case-mix payment and compliance exposure.
How we help

Medflux approach for Home Health

Operational ownership — not a ticket queue that goes quiet after submission.

  • NOA and RAP submission tracked against Medicare's timely-filing clock from the first day of intake.
  • Case-mix input review — comorbidity coding, functional scores, admission source — before the final claim locks in.
  • Face-to-face and certification documentation checks that catch gaps while there is still time to fix them.
  • Episode-level reporting that separates therapy, nursing, and aide visit production from payment.
