Increasing dependency on massage therapy and a burst in the number of therapists leave independent therapists and care organizations that employ them to deal with something that’s not as rosy: partial insurance coverage and disparity of rules from one state in the US to another. What adds to regulatory complexities is that a therapy to be reimbursed, has to be recommended by a physician via a prescription and has to be carried out under the supervision of the physician.
Partial coverage, disparate regulations and the need to establish by proper documentation that a therapy has been carried out upon a physician’s recommendation and supervision as an extension of the physician’s treatment - together bring upon the care provider administrative and other responsibilities that the provider is ill-equipped to handle.

Medical billing can be considered to be a complicated service in terms of technicality and ever changing regulations, which make it quite difficult to standardize medical billing processes. To bring about some amount of uniformity in the process of billing and coding, the Coding Standards Committee developed new coding standards which also comprise a pool of designated coding and billing professionals.
