The Neurology Billing Challenge

Every specialty has coding landmines. Here are the ones costing neurology practices the most.

EEG Duration & Type Coding

$20-40K/yr

95816-95822

EEG codes differ based on duration (routine vs extended), sleep activation, and awake vs asleep recording. Billing the routine code for an extended study or missing the sleep activation add-on leaves significant revenue uncaptured.

Nerve Conduction Study Bundling

$25-50K/yr

95907-95913

NCS codes are based on the number of studies performed, not the number of nerves. Miscounting studies or failing to code the correct tier (1-2, 3-4, 5-6, etc.) causes systematic underbilling across every NCS session.

EMG Needle Examination

$15-30K/yr

95860-95872

EMG needle codes are based on the number and type of extremities tested. Billing a limited study code when a complete examination was performed, or missing additional extremity add-ons, is one of the most common neurology billing errors.

Sleep Study Authorization

40% of denials auth-related

95805-95811

Nearly 40% of sleep study denials stem from authorization failures — missing auth, expired auth, or auth for the wrong study type. These high-dollar claims require proactive auth management before the patient arrives.

Video EEG Monitoring

High-dollar, frequently denied

95950-95954

Long-term video EEG monitoring for epilepsy evaluation involves daily codes that can total thousands per admission. Without proper authorization, medical necessity documentation, and daily code selection, these claims are denied at high rates.

Botox & Injection Coding

Underbilled 20%+

64612-64616 / J0585

Botox injections for migraine, dystonia, and spasticity require both the procedure code and the drug code with correct unit calculations. Over 20% of practices underbill the drug units or miss the injection guidance code.

I highly recommend Everest A/R Management to anyone looking for a Revenue Cycle Management solution. Their team was able to dive into the mess that a previous billing company had left us in and they methodically worked through the problems and even captured what we had considered to be lost revenue. They work tirelessly through denials and appeals to make sure that we get paid for the work we’ve done. Our A/R is now accurate, and our cash flow has improved significantly. We no longer stress about our billing, and we can trust them to the point where we can focus on improving other areas of the business. Their communication is excellent, and they’ve integrated so well with our team that it feels like they are a department within our organization. We couldn’t have done it without them. Thank you to everyone on the Everest team!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have experience with neurodiagnostic billing?
Yes. EEG, EMG, and nerve conduction study coding is one of our core competencies in neurology billing. Our coders are trained on every study type, duration tier, and add-on code. We audit every neurodiagnostic claim before submission.
How do you handle NCS study count billing?
We count the total number of nerve conduction studies performed per session and select the correct tiered code (95907-95913). Each study is documented individually, and we verify the count against your electrodiagnostic report before billing.
Can you manage sleep study billing and authorization?
Yes. We handle the full sleep study authorization process, verify study type matches the auth, and bill the correct polysomnography code based on whether the study was diagnostic, split-night, or titration. We track every auth to prevent expiration.
How do you handle video EEG monitoring claims?
We bill daily monitoring codes based on the actual duration and level of monitoring performed, coordinate with hospital billing when applicable, and manage prior authorization for multi-day admissions. Documentation is reviewed daily to ensure correct code selection.
Do you integrate with our EHR?
We integrate with all major EHR and practice management systems, including Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Natus, and NextGen. Our team connects to your existing workflow without disruption.
How quickly can we get started?
Most neurology practices are fully onboarded within one to two weeks. We begin with a free billing analysis to identify your biggest revenue leaks, then our team connects and starts processing claims immediately.
