Level of Service in Medical Billing Explained
In medical billing, the level of service is determined by factors such as time spent with the patient, the complexity of the medical decision-making, and the nature of the presenting problem. Higher levels of service usually result in higher reimbursement rates.
For example, a routine check-up might be billed at a lower level of service than a visit involving multiple tests and treatments.
