HOW MEDSYNTHEA SOLVES NURSING HOME / SNF BILLING IN WISCONSIN

SNF billing under Medicare Part A requires documented daily skilled nursing or therapy services (PT, OT, or SLP) that can only be provided on an inpatient basis — custodial care alone does not qualify. Physician billing for SNF care uses CPT 99304–99306 (initial) and 99307–99310 (subsequent), with documentation requirements tied to patient complexity and time. MedSynthea tracks skilled care criteria day-by-day, validates qualifying diagnoses for Medicare SNF admission, and generates Minimum Data Set (MDS) coding crosswalks to physician billing documentation.
