The Problem
Insurance companies, doctors' offices, and labs all negotiate with each other — in a language of codes and contracts. When they disagree, you get the bill. And often, the bill is wrong.
What do CPT codes and adjustments mean? We'll explain everything, step by step.
Learn the 4 StepsThe 4-Step Guide
CPT codes describe what service was performed — and represent a specific dollar amount to your insurance. Wrong code, wrong bill.
Clinics and labs submit codes alongside clinical notes. Missing or incomplete notes give insurance a reason to deny your claim.
Insurance checks your plan, your network, and medical necessity. Each checkpoint is a place errors can hide — and money can be lost.
EOBs, denial letters, approval letters, bills — each tells a different part of your story. Knowing which is which is your first defense.
Real Savings. Real People.
These patients found the treasure hidden in their bills.
A C-section patient discovered a billing error that had incorrectly coded her procedure. NaviBill's guide helped her compare codes, identify the discrepancy, and dispute it successfully.
A routine tongue lesion removal was overbilled by $675 due to upcoded procedure levels. By comparing her EOB to the clinic bill, she spotted the mismatch and requested a correction.
Multiple visits to the same urgent care were billed with the wrong tax identification for the clinic — causing the claims to be incorrectly processed as out of network. A simple administrative fix, found through the NaviBill checklist, helped make it right.
