- Prompt Payment Law Compliance: Florida law requires insurers to pay or deny clean nephrology claims within 30 days, which makes accurate dialysis and CKD submissions essential to avoid delays or penalties.
- High Documentation Scrutiny: Chronic Kidney Disease and ESRD treatments are closely reviewed, requiring detailed clinical documentation to withstand audits and utilization reviews.
