OB/GYN billing has a structure unlike most other specialties, built around the global maternity package alongside separately billable procedures and well-woman visits. Practices that don't track the global period carefully often under-bill for legitimately separate services or trigger denials by billing within the bundled window.
Common OB/GYN Billing Challenges
- Correct application of the global maternity package
- Separating billable services from bundled prenatal/postpartum care
- Procedure coding for in-office and surgical GYN services
- Denials tied to incomplete antepartum visit documentation

- Clear tracking of what falls inside vs. outside the global package
- Pre-submission claim scrubbing to catch bundling errors
