  • 1.  Looking for recommendations

    Posted 01-04-2024 03:07:00 PM

    Does anyone have experiences in working with a clinical consultant that they would recommend? Specifically, someone who would be able to review documentation and give a clinical expert opinion if the services performed/documented/billed were medically necessary. We are not looking for someone say whether or not the diagnosis used was medically necessary as per an NCD/LCD, but to give an expert clinical opinion. There are a few specialties that we want to start with but would eventually want to expand to many others. Recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi Lisa,

    Are you looking specifically for a physician to provide an expert clinical opinion? Which specialties are you starting with?
