The Challenge

Ophthalmology billing is uniquely complex. We know it cold.

High-complexity care comes with high-complexity billing — and most generalist RCM vendors aren’t equipped to handle it. SCALE is.

01

Drug Acquisition & J-Code Risk

Anti-VEGF buy-and-bill, wastage (JW/JZ), and unit accuracy expose practices to large write-offs when mishandled.

02

Modifier-Intensive Diagnostics

OCT, visual fields, and imaging require precise bilateral, component, and frequency modifiers to avoid denials.

03

Premium & Surgical Complexity

Premium IOLs, ASC facility billing, and global periods blend insured and self-pay components that demand clean separation.

Core Services

How SCALE solves it

Core Service

Ophthalmology Prior Authorization

We manage injectable, MIGS, and specialty-procedure authorizations end to end — including peer-to-peer.

AI-Powered

Ophthalmic Coding & Charge Capture

Automated review flags J-code unit, wastage, and modifier errors across drug and testing claims.

Denial Recovery

Ophthalmology Denial Management

Payer-specific appeal templates for drug, modifier, and medical-necessity denials.

Specialty Coding

Injectable & Drug Revenue Integrity

Accurate buy-and-bill, JW/JZ wastage, and unit capture for high-cost injectables.

What We Do

End-to-end RCM for every Ophthalmology encounter

Automation handles volume and velocity. Our experts handle exceptions, edge cases, and strategic optimization — creating a closed-loop system that continuously improves performance over time.

01

Discovery & Audit

We analyze 90 days of claims data to identify coding gaps, denial patterns, and authorization bottlenecks specific to your practice.

02

EHR Integration

Seamless connection to your EHR and practice-management system — no new software for your team to learn or manage.

03

Go-Live & Handoff

SCALE’s dedicated team takes over day-to-day RCM operations with transparent reporting from day one.

04

Continuous Optimization

Monthly performance reviews, payer-policy monitoring, and AI-driven recommendations keep revenue growing over time.
