Pulmonology billing is among the most technically demanding in medicine — PFTs, sleep studies, bronchoscopy, critical care coding. ParaMed's certified specialists capture every billable unit so your practice collects every dollar earned.
Pulmonologists manage some of the most technically coded procedures in all of medicine. Pulmonary function testing, sleep medicine, bronchoscopy, and ICU critical care coding each require specialist-level expertise. Without it, you lose revenue silently — claim after claim.
Pulmonary function test codes (94010–94762) are frequently miscoded, missing bundling rules or required spirometry components.
Sleep medicine billing (95782–95811) faces high denial rates due to missing prior auth, incorrect type-of-service codes, or HST vs PSG confusion.
Bronchoscopy procedures (31622–31656) are among the most undercoded in medicine — ancillary services and add-on codes routinely missed.
ICU and critical care time-based billing (99291–99292) requires precise time documentation — incorrect coding leaves thousands uncollected daily.
Most pulmonology practices don't realize how much revenue they're silently losing to preventable billing errors every month.
A practice seeing 400 pulmonology patients per month losing 15% of revenue to coding errors = $180,000+ per year left uncollected.
From the patient's first spirometry visit to final critical care payment, we manage every billing touchpoint in your pulmonology practice — so your team focuses solely on patient outcomes.

No contract. No credit card. Just clarity about your revenue.
These three areas generate the most revenue for pulmonologists — and carry the highest coding error rates with generalist billing teams. Here's exactly what we do differently.
PFT billing covers a complex range of codes from simple spirometry to full body plethysmography. Most billing errors occur in component bundling and medical necessity documentation.
Sleep medicine billing is the #1 source of pulmonology denials — prior auth failures, incorrect study type coding, and CPAP follow-up billing errors drain revenue daily.
Critical care billing is time-based and unforgiving — a few minutes miscalculated means a lower E/M level, and concurrent care rules are frequently violated, creating costly audit exposure.
