Radiology Billing Services in Indianapolis, IN

Indianapolis is a full metropolitan imaging market, spanning IU Health's academic reading volume alongside Community Health Network, Ascension St. Vincent, and Franciscan Health facilities across Marion County and the surrounding donut counties. That density means a radiology group here may read for several systems at once, each with its own facility relationship, and the professional and technical split has to be assigned per site of service or the claims collide. A study read inside a hospital carries a modifier 26 professional charge while the facility bills the technical component; the same exam at a freestanding center may bill globally. Sorting that correctly at scale is what a metro imaging practice needs from its biller.

Indiana runs most Medicaid coverage through managed care: the Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP) for adults and Hoosier Healthwise for children and pregnant members, both delivered by managed-care entities with their own prior-authorization portals and advanced-imaging vendors. For an MRI, CT, or PET in Indianapolis, the authorization pathway depends on which program and which managed-care plan covers the patient. A professional billing company that maps each HIP and Hoosier Healthwise plan's imaging rules clears those authorizations up front, keeping denials off a high-volume metro ledger.

The mechanics rest on the split between the read and the equipment. Modifier 26 pays the radiologist, modifier TC pays the facility, and a global claim covers both.

Modifiers 59, 76, and 77 unbundle procedures that NCCI edits would otherwise reject or flag as duplicate, and contrast studies pay only when the supervising physician and contrast agent appear in the record.

We bill for academic and hospital-based radiology groups, freestanding diagnostic imaging centers, interventional radiology practices, and teleradiology reading teams across the Indianapolis metro. Our clients extend into Carmel, Fishers, Greenwood, Noblesville, and Avon, and our teleradiology billing supports groups whose radiologists hold licenses in more than one state, where multi-state credentialing runs alongside the claim work.

From a subspecialty reading group to a large multi-system network, the workflow scales with your study volume, not your headcount. In a market where a single group may read for academic, community, and faith-based facilities in the same week, we tag every study to its originating system so the facility relationship, contracted rate, and 26/TC assignment never cross wires. We reconcile each remittance against the correct contract, catching underpayments that are easy to miss at metro volume, and we keep each HIP and Hoosier Healthwise plan's authorization rules current so a policy change does not quietly turn approved imaging into denied claims.
