Verification of Benefits

$35

We  verify your policy's coverage for the type of birth/care you are  planning & any limitations or exclusions in your insurance plan.

We obtain maternity coverage details, including the planned place of birth, provider type & newborn care.
 

If a gap request or prior authorization is applicable, we will help submit one.

 You  should get a verification when you start maternity care, but one can be  done at any point. Getting one before any billing helps you know what  to expect for coverage.

$165

The majority of your claims are submitted before you have completed your final postpartum visit.
 

Billing Schedule:

• A claim is submitted for the first prenatal visit.
• Claims are submitted immediately after birth for all prenatal, labor, delivery, newborn care, & supplies. 
• Final claims are submitted after the remaining postpartum & newborn care has been completed.

Note: This service does not include a verification of benefits

*Payment for billing services must be received before the first claim is submitted.

*The  client is responsible for notifying the biller through email of their  first prenatal visit, delivery, and last postpartum visit. Lyons Medical  Billing does not keep track of the client’s care schedule. Once  notification is received, allow up to 2 weeks for the billing items to  be completed.

*If  you transfer out of care before 36 weeks, $90 will be refunded due to  reduced billing services. If you transfer out of care after 36 weeks no  refund will be issued for billing services. You are responsible for  alerting us to your transfer for the refund.

$145

 This  option is for clients who want billing submitted after completing their  care. All claims, including prenatal, labor and delivery, postpartum,  supplies, and newborn care, are submitted once care is complete.
 

Note: This service does not include a verification of benefits.

Please  allow up to 14 business days for your billing service to be processed  and completed once payment is received.  You will receive an email with  our contact info in case you have any questions or concerns.

If  a refund is necessary, we will refund the amount you paid, less any  fees we are charged for processing the payment, which is typically  around 3%.
