Office encounters
Trace the path from signed visit documentation and diagnosis context to the claim, rejection work, payment posting, and patient balance.
Primary care billing starts with the visit mix
A busy primary care practice handles recurring office visits and different preventive or longitudinal services. Separate those workstreams before deciding what a managed billing partner should own.
Book a demoOne schedule, different billing paths
The front desk may see one calendar; the billing team has to distinguish how each service was furnished and documented.
Preventive visits
Identify which appointments are preventive services or Annual Wellness Visits rather than assuming an ordinary problem visit follows the same coverage rules.
Ongoing care
If your practice offers chronic or advanced primary care management, identify the consent, documentation, and monthly ownership requirements before treating them as a routine visit claim.
Where Taiga could take on the billing desk
The practice retains clinical judgment and signed records. Confirm these operational boundaries with Taiga for your setup.
Before submission
Determine where charge data and approved coding context originate. Taiga describes coding review with physician approval before claims go out.
After submission
Map clearinghouse responses, denials, appeals, payments, and patient balances to named owners. Taiga describes managing these downstream billing tasks.
Across programs
Ask whether preventive and longitudinal program claims are in scope, and who checks consent or care-management documentation. No program-level coverage is promised here.
Questions to settle before cutover
Bring de-identified examples of a routine visit, a preventive visit, and any ongoing-care program you bill.
Which services are in scope?
List the visit and program types you actually offer. Ask Taiga to mark included, excluded, or needing further review.
Who owns the first claim?
Confirm where charges are entered, who approves coding, which payer enrollments stay active, and how duplicates are prevented.
What happens to older A/R?
Decide who follows pre-cutover claims, current denials, patient statements, and open balances.
For independent primary care teams
Most useful for an owner or practice manager who wants to hand off claim and follow-up work without surrendering clinical decisions or front-desk context.
Not a coverage decision
Medicare preventive and care-management requirements differ from ordinary office visits and can change. The cited CMS material explains the distinction; this page does not decide eligibility, code selection, or Taiga support for a specific program.
Questions about primary care billing
Can Taiga bill preventive and chronic care services for us?
Taiga names primary care as a supported specialty, but this page does not verify each preventive or care-management program. Review your actual service mix and the required documentation with Taiga.
Does Taiga make the clinical or coding decision?
Clinical decisions remain with the practice. Taiga describes coding review with physician approval; confirm exactly where approval happens in your workflow.
What should we prepare for a fit call?
Bring de-identified examples from each service type, your EHR and clearinghouse names, payer list, and an outline of who handles current denials and patient balances.
Map your primary care handoff
Bring a de-identified sample of your visit mix and current billing route. Ask Taiga where its managed service fits.
