People + technology

The purpose of charge audit’s activity is to check the accuracy of the charge capture procedure in the office, specifically whether the practice is billing for all services that were performed. The audit will reconcile the actual services performed and documented in the medical record with the patient account to identify unbilled services, services billed with the wrong procedure code and charges billed for services not performed. The accuracy of diagnosis coding will also be audited.
