How radiology billing works
Radiology groups and imaging centers process large volumes of claims every day. Each study may be billed globally, or split into a professional component for the radiologist’s interpretation and a technical component for the equipment and staff, depending on who owns the equipment and where the study was performed.
Advanced imaging such as CT, MRI and PET usually requires prior authorization through payers or radiology benefit managers. Studies must be coded exactly as performed, with or without contrast, number of views, body area, and linked to diagnoses that meet medical-necessity policies.
Interventional radiology adds procedures like biopsies, drainages, vascular access and embolization, with complex bundling of imaging guidance. A radiology billing partner coordinates with referring offices and hospitals, ensures authorizations match what was performed and works denials quickly to keep high-volume cash flow steady.
Common radiology billing challenges
Professional/technical splits
Using the wrong component or global billing causes duplicate-claim denials.
Authorization mismatches
Studies performed differently from what was authorized (e.g., with contrast) are denied.
Missing referring information
Claims need complete ordering provider data and diagnosis information.
Contrast and views accuracy
Codes must reflect contrast use and number of views exactly.
Interventional bundling
Imaging guidance is included in many IR codes and cannot be billed separately.
High-volume low-dollar claims
Small denials go unworked without efficient follow-up processes.

| 71046 | Chest x-ray, two views. |

Code examples are for orientation only. Always code from the current CPT®, HCPCS and ICD-10-CM code sets and payer policies.
Code what was done, and authorized
Compare the final study with the authorization before billing. If the protocol changed (for example contrast added), update the authorization or follow the payer’s retro-authorization process to avoid denials.
