Are You Ready for the UnitedHealthcare Radiology Change Effective April 1, 2026?
from Auditing Antics: Navigating Medical Coding and Auditing · host Stephanie Allard Consulting, LLC
This is not just a policy update, it is a shift in workflow. In this episode of Auditing Antics, we break down what UnitedHealthcare (UHC) is really changing and why so many providers are at risk without realizing it. If you are reviewing imaging on the same date as an E M service, that work may no longer be separately reimbursed unless it meets strict interpretation and reporting requirements. We walk through what qualifies as a true interpretation versus a simple review, why global billing is now under increased scrutiny, and how payer edits and documentation expectations will directly impact your claims. This is not just about radiology, it reflects where payer enforcement is going and how quickly reimbursement can shift when workflows and documentation do not align. If your workflow has not changed, your revenue likely will.Reach Out For Compliance Help Now! https://www.stephanieallardconsulting.com/contactSign up for our updates and the latest compliance news here! https://www.stephanieallardconsulting.com/Find our AUDITING ANTICS PODCAST for regular updates and discussions related to compliance in the medical coding and billing industry! https://www.stephanieallardconsulting.com/auditing-antics-podcastView our compliance consulting, auditing, and education services here! https://www.stephanieallardconsulting.com/servicesView our Coding Compliance Connection membership here! https://www.stephanieallardconsulting.com/membership View our Etsy shop here! https://sallardconsulting.etsy.com
