Chiropractic billing · Irving, TX
Chiropractic billing services in Irving keep your claims clean when your patient mix runs from Amerigroup Medicaid families to the commercial PPO executives who work the Las Colinas corporate corridor.
247MBS is a HIPAA-compliant, SOC 2 Type II billing company that has handled DC revenue cycles since 2005, pairing every Irving practice with a dedicated account manager and a free 360° dashboard so you always see where each dollar sits. From subluxation documentation to personal-injury liens, we make the money show up.
Irving is a two-speed market for a chiropractor, and your billing has to speak both languages. Along the Las Colinas Urban Center and around the DFW Airport employers, you treat insured professionals whose commercial plans reimburse timed therapy and active manipulation well but audit medical necessity hard. Across the older neighborhoods near Irving Boulevard, a large share of care runs through Texas Medicaid managed care, where Amerigroup administers benefits under STAR and imposes visit limits and prior-authorization rules that a general biller often misses. Add the auto-injury cases feeding off SH-183 and the toll roads, and one Irving DC can be running three reimbursement models at once.
That is exactly where a specialist chiropractic billing company earns its keep. We read the Texas Medicaid provider manual the way it is actually enforced, we know Amerigroup's chiropractic caps, and we build personal-injury claims to survive an adjuster's letter of protection review. Our coders are AAPC- and AHIMA-credentialed and work only clean, documented claims, so your first-pass acceptance stays near 99% and your days in A/R stay under 25.
The differentiator here is payer whiplash. A Las Colinas cash-and-commercial practice bills active corrective care with the AT modifier and layers timed therapy under the 8-minute rule; an Irving Boulevard family clinic leans on Amerigroup managed Medicaid with strict caps; a PI-heavy office off SH-183 waits months on a lien and needs airtight documentation before a case settles. Miss the AT modifier on a Medicare senior and the visit is treated as maintenance and denied. Bill five spinal regions the exam does not support and you invite a takeback. We tune each claim to its payer instead of running one template across all of them.
Manipulation codes track the number of spinal regions the exam documents, and the AT modifier separates active correction from non-covered maintenance. Timed therapies follow the 8-minute rule.
| Service billed | Code / modifier | What Irving payers check |
|---|---|---|
| CMT, 1–2 spinal regions | 98940 | Region count matches the PART exam |
| CMT, 3–4 spinal regions | 98941 | Subluxation diagnosis for each region |
| CMT, 5 spinal regions | 98942 | Documentation supports all five |
| Extraspinal manipulation | 98943 | Commercial only; Medicare excludes |
| Active/corrective care | AT modifier | Present on every covered Medicare CMT |
| Therapeutic exercise | 97110 | Timed units, 8-minute rule |
| Manual therapy, separate region | 97140 + 59/XS | Distinct region from the CMT |
