Live dashboards via SCALE's analytics platform
Physical therapy 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.
8-Minute Rule & Unit Accuracy
Time-based unit calculation and 59/X modifiers are a constant source of under-billing and denials.
Plan-of-Care Compliance
Certification, recertification, and progress-note timing requirements drive medical-necessity denials when missed.
Threshold & Visit-Limit Tracking
Medicare therapy thresholds (KX) and payer visit caps require active tracking to avoid write-offs.
How SCALE solves it
PT Authorization & Visit Tracking
We manage visit-limit, cap, and authorization tracking end to end so no billable visit slips through.
Therapy Coding & Charge Capture
Automated review flags 8-minute-rule, modifier, and unit errors across timed and untimed codes.
Therapy Denial Management
Payer-specific appeal templates for medical-necessity, certification, and threshold denials.
Plan-of-Care & Threshold Integrity
Certification timing and KX threshold tracking protect every billable visit.
