Medicare Compliance

Our Hard-Stop Compliance prevents the #1 reason for denied Medicare claims – errors or incomplete patient treatment records. S4PT ensures your patient’s records are up-to-date with appointment schedules, automatically adding the KX modifier when necessary to avoid claim denials.

Navigating Medicare compliance in outpatient physical therapy documentation and billing is essential for any practice. Systems4PT software features fully integrated tools that simplify the documentation process, making it easier to capture all necessary information required by Medicare. Your EMR and Billing automatically identify incomplete or missing data, ensuring your clinic maintains accurate and up-to-date patient records.

Correct coding for claims is crucial, and our platform ensures that essential modifiers, such as the KX modifier – important for rehabilitation therapy billing under Medicare – are applied correctly. This helps to minimize the risk of denials or audits.

With Systems4PT, applying the KX modifier becomes a streamlined part of your workflow. Our software supports rehab therapists and billing teams in staying compliant with annual thresholds. Our documentation tools help you justify extended therapy services to CMS and ensure your documentation and records are accurate for potential medical reviews.
