General Surgery Billing, Done Right

Common General Surgery services we bill

Surgical procedures with global periods, E/M visits, and assistant-at-surgery services.

Where General Surgery revenue commonly leaks

Most lost revenue in General Surgery traces back to global-period rules and modifiers 24, 25, 57, 58, 78, and 79, missed eligibility checks, incomplete documentation, and unworked denials. Each is preventable with the right front-end checks and disciplined follow-up.

How Consult By Me protects it

We verify eligibility and benefits before the visit, apply accurate, up-to-date General Surgery coding, scrub every claim before submission, and work denials and appeals to resolution, while keeping you compliant with changing payer rules.

The numbers we watch

We track the metrics that decide whether a General Surgery practice thrives: clean-claim rate, days in accounts receivable (A/R), denial rate, and net collection rate, and report them to you in plain language.
