Radiology
Healthcare IT and billing built for a radiology practice
Professional and technical component billing, high-volume claim throughput and imaging authorization for radiology groups.

Why radiology is different
Radiology billing is defined by volume and by component logic: whether each study is billed globally, professionally or technically depends on equipment ownership, place of service and the contract behind it.
Healthcare SBC handles that at scale, with automated component determination, high-throughput claim processing, imaging authorization support and per-facility contract management.
Common challenges
Where radiology practices lose revenue
The billing and workflow problems specific to this specialty, and the ones generic systems handle badly.
Component determination
Global, professional-only and technical-only billing depends on setting and ownership, and errors are systematic rather than isolated.
Extremely high claim volume
Radiology groups generate claim volumes that make manual review impossible and automation essential.
Imaging prior authorization
Advanced imaging carries dense authorization requirements enforced through radiology benefit managers.
Multi-facility contracts
Groups reading for many facilities must manage distinct contracts, rates and remittance streams.

FAQ
Radiology, frequently asked questions questions
- How do you determine global versus component billing?
- Billing is driven by place of service and equipment ownership configured per facility and per contract, so professional-only, technical-only or global billing is applied automatically rather than decided study by study.
- Can you handle our claim volume?
- Yes. The platform is built for high-throughput processing with automated edits and exception-based review, so staff attention goes to the small fraction of claims that actually need a human.
- Do you support imaging prior authorization?
- Yes. Authorization status is verified before studies are performed, including radiology benefit manager requirements, preventing the denials that follow unauthorized advanced imaging.
