Are Global Maternity Code Denials Climbing Despite the 2026 RVU Exemption?

Yes — global maternity code denials are climbing in 2026 despite the CMS RVU exemption, because the fee schedule protection preserves the allowable rate but does nothing to prevent payer-level claim edits targeting antepartum visit documentation, co-management modifier usage, and VBAC medical necessity narratives.

Wound care billing problems cost the average wound care practice between $80,000 and $200,000 per year in denied claims, undercaptured supply charges, and documentation-driven write-offs.

Why Primary Care Practices Can’t Afford Reactive Denial Management in 2026 — And What Works Instead

Primary care practices can’t afford reactive denial management in 2026 because the cost of a denied claim has tripled — MA plan prior authorization complexity, CCM documentation requirements, and E/M coding scrutiny mean that working a denial now requires three to five times the staff labor it required in 2022, while the 2026 MPFS conversion […]

If your orthopedic billing company is not actively identifying and closing accounts receivable (AR) gaps at mid-year, you are most likely sitting on tens of thousands of dollars in stalled or written-off revenue.

How Do You Know If Your Wound Care Revenue Cycle Is Losing Money at Mid-Year?

If patient volume is steady but collections feel flat, your wound care revenue cycle is likely losing money right now — and mid-year is exactly when most practices find out.

A Mid-Year Billing Cleanup is a structured audit of your revenue cycle performed at the halfway point of the year to fix claim errors, reconcile unapplied payments, and stop revenue leakage before Q3 makes it worse.
