Dental Coding

Key aspects of Dental Coding

• Standardized Codes:

  Dental coding relies on the CDT code set, which includes alphanumeric codes (e.g., D1110 for adult prophylaxis, D0274 for bitewing x-rays) that precisely describe dental procedures.

• Accurate Documentation:

  Using the correct CDT codes ensures proper documentation of the services provided, which is essential for both patient records and insurance claims.

• Insurance Claims:

  CDT codes are used to submit claims to dental insurance companies, ensuring that the practice is reimbursed appropriately for the services rendered.

• Billing Purposes:

  Dental coding is fundamental for accurate billing to patients, insurance companies, and government programs.

• Compliance:

  Accurate dental coding helps dental practices comply with industry regulations and avoid claim denials.

• CDT vs. CPT:

  CDT codes are specific to dental procedures, while CPT codes are used for medical procedures. In certain situations, a dental procedure may require both types of codes for proper billing.

• Tooth Numbering:

  Tooth numbering systems, like the Universal Numbering System, are used in conjunction with CDT codes to identify specific teeth involved in a procedure.

United MBS's Dental Coding Team understands the nomenclature of each codes and has the required expertise in the clinical side of it. Also, claim submission is done through J400 form which is exclusively for dental claims.

With all these differences set from the usual coding process, our Dental Coding team follows certain protocols to make the coding error-free and in getting the claims paid accurately and timely.

Unlike the usual medical coding process that requires the CPT (Current procedural terminology), dental coding differs completely and requires CDT (Current Dental terminology) maintained by the American Dental Association (ADA) submitted to the Dental insurances. Dental Coding broadly falls into three categories: Diagnostic, Preventive and Restorative.
