Allergy & Immunology Medical Billing Services

Why Allergy & Immunology Practices Choose Atlas Billers

Allergy and immunology practices face unique billing challenges driven by high-volume allergy testing, ongoing immunotherapy administration, and the growing use of costly biologic medications. CPT codes for percutaneous testing (95004), intradermal testing (95024, 95027), and immunotherapy injections (95115–95180) have specific documentation and bundling rules that general billing companies frequently mishandle, costing practices significant revenue.

Atlas Billers provides allergy-trained coding specialists who understand the difference between billing for single-allergen vs. multi-allergen testing, the proper sequencing of professional and technical components for pulmonary function testing, and the prior authorization workflows required for biologics like omalizumab and dupilumab. We ensure your practice captures full reimbursement on every testing panel and injection visit.

Common Allergy & Immunology Billing Challenges

Allergy Testing Panel Billing and Medical Necessity Documentation

Payers frequently deny expanded allergen panels when medical necessity is not clearly documented. Knowing which diagnoses support 80-allergen panels vs. limited panels is critical for clean claims and audit defense.

Immunotherapy Injection Administration Code Complexity

Billing for allergy injection visits requires distinguishing between single-injection codes (95115) and multi-injection codes (95117), plus proper E/M coding when physicians evaluate patients during the same visit. Missed add-on codes are a common source of lost revenue.

Biologics Prior Authorization and Step Therapy Requirements

Biologic medications like Xolair (omalizumab) for asthma and chronic urticaria require extensive prior authorizations, including step therapy documentation proving failure of conventional treatments. Delayed or denied authorizations directly impact patient care and practice revenue.

Undercoding on Multi-Allergen Skin Test Panels

Many practices undercode allergy testing by not capturing the full number of allergens tested, or by failing to bill separately for percutaneous and intradermal components when both are performed during the same session.
