Gastroenterology on eClinicalWorks

GI medical billing for practices using eClinicalWorks

GI billing gets complicated quickly. A screening turns diagnostic. A polyp comes out. The technique changes the code. The professional and facility sides need to land in the right place.

VeroRCM manages gastroenterology billing for independent practices that want to keep eClinicalWorks and get closer oversight of every procedure claim.

Keep eCW

Keep eClinicalWorks. Improve the billing behind it.

Your physicians keep documenting in eCW. Your staff keeps scheduling procedures and checking in patients the way they do today.

What changes is the billing work after the encounter: reviewing procedure claims before they go out, working denials, following up on A/R, and checking that what was paid matches what should have been paid.

For more on keeping your EHR while changing billing, see eClinicalWorks medical billing.

Specialty work

The details that matter in GI billing

Screening versus diagnostic

What was scheduled, why the procedure was done, and what was found all affect how a colonoscopy should be billed.

Getting it wrong can create a denial, or an unexpected bill for a patient who thought their screening was covered.

We review the documented intent and findings so the claim reflects what actually happened.

Polyp removal and technique

Snare, forceps, ablation, and other techniques can carry different coding implications.

We bill based on what the procedure note supports, not what was expected before the procedure.

Office, ASC, and hospital settings

Procedures done in an ASC or hospital outpatient department involve professional and facility billing, and the place of service has to be right.

We manage the professional claim based on the documented place of service and the work performed.

Anesthesia and sedation

Who provided sedation, and what is documented, can change how that part of the encounter is billed and whether it is paid.

Advanced procedures

ERCP, EUS, and other advanced procedures bring extra documentation, coding, and bundling considerations.

The claim should match what actually happened in the room.

When something goes wrong

Where GI practices on eClinicalWorks tend to lose revenue

Denials

Screening versus diagnostic intent, medical necessity, authorization, documentation, and coding issues are the usual causes.

We work the denial and look for the pattern behind it.

Underpayments

These are harder to see because the payer sent money. It just may not be the right amount, especially when multiple procedures happen in the same session.

A/R

Procedure claims that are not resolved quickly start to pile up.

We prioritize A/R by value, payer status, and deadlines, not just age.

Visibility

See what is still open, not just what came in

Monthly collections do not show you:

  • Which procedure claims are still unresolved
  • Whether screening-to-diagnostic denials are repeating
  • Which payers are slowing down payment
  • Whether multi-procedure claims were paid correctly
  • What the billing team is working on now

Vero gives your practice a clearer view of the work that still needs attention.

How we work

Technology finds it. Billing professionals fix it.

Vero uses technology to flag at-risk claims, recurring denials, and payments that look off.

Technology helps us surface what deserves attention. Experienced billing professionals review the findings and do the actual work.

Independence

An independent billing partner for eCW practices

VeroRCM is an independent medical billing and revenue cycle management company. We are not eClinicalWorks and are not affiliated with eClinicalWorks' own revenue cycle services.

You can keep eCW and still choose a different billing partner.

Questions

Common questions about GI billing on eClinicalWorks

Can we keep eClinicalWorks if Vero handles our billing?

Yes.

Your documentation, scheduling, and front-office workflows stay in eCW. Vero manages the revenue cycle around them.

Can we keep our existing eCW procedure workflow if Vero handles billing?

Yes.

Your physicians and staff can continue using eClinicalWorks for documentation, scheduling, and procedure workflows. Vero manages the revenue-cycle work around that existing setup, including claim review, denials, payments, A/R, and underpayment review.

Does Vero handle screening colonoscopy billing?

Yes, including cases where a screening becomes diagnostic or a polyp is removed.

We bill based on the documented intent and findings.

Can you bill procedures done at an ASC or hospital?

Yes.

We handle the professional claims for procedures performed in the office, ASC, or hospital outpatient setting, based on the documented place of service.

Can you look for underpayments on GI procedures?

Yes, where reimbursement information is available.

Multi-procedure sessions are a common place for short-pays to hide.

Do we have to switch billing companies to get an audit?
