California Medical Billing — FAQs
Medi-Cal primarily operates through county-based managed care plans requiring plan-specific billing, authorization, and reimbursement compliance
Many imaging, specialty, and high-cost services require prior authorization, especially under Medi-Cal managed care and HMOs
Missing authorizations, eligibility errors, insufficient documentation, and county-level plan variations frequently trigger denials
Commercial payers typically reimburse faster than Medi-Cal, where coding edits and documentation reviews often delay adjudication
Telehealth is broadly covered but requires accurate POS codes and modifiers under Medi-Cal, Medicare, and commercial payer rules.
Medi-Cal coverage can change monthly, so verifying benefits before each visit prevents non-covered service denials
Behavioral health, surgical, and high-volume outpatient specialties follow distinct coding standards, documentation thresholds, and session limits
Correct modifier usage prevents bundling edits and ensures services are reimbursed according to payer-specific policies
Experienced billing teams reduce denials, improve clean claim rates, and strengthen cash flow through payer-aligned workflows
County-specific managed care plans apply unique authorization, referral, and reimbursement rules that require payer-aligned billing processes
