What Are the Main Reasons Texas Pediatric Practices Suffer Revenue Loss and Denials?
Pediatric practices in Texas face four revenue-impacting billing failures that drive the majority of denials:
- Incomplete Texas Health Steps Checkups: Texas Medicaid treats a checkup as incomplete when screening tools are missing, making the visit non-reimbursable. Our AI agents validate every component before submission.
- Lost TVFC Vaccine Administration Revenue: Texas Medicaid does not reimburse TVFC-supplied vaccines, so under-billed administration codes cost the only payable line. We bill 90460, 90461, and 90471 with accurate component counts.
- Missed 95-Day TMHP Filing Deadlines: The pediatric practices in Texas give only 95 days to file a claim. Transcure closes charges daily and flags aging claims before the deadline passes.
- Modifier 25 Denials on Same-Day Visits: Pediatric clinics bill sick visits and well-child checkups together every day. Our AI agent confirms the documentation supports modifier 25, then appeals to any evaluation and management line denied.

How Does Transcure Handle Texas Medicaid and CHIP Claims?
We file Texas Medicaid and CHIP claims through the right MCO rules from the start. Texas does not run one Medicaid program. Your patients sit across Superior HealthPlan, Amerigroup, Texas Children’s Health Plan, Community Health Choice, and others. Each plan has its own filing window, prior authorization list, and claim format.
Our billers check eligibility before every visit through ELIXA. This catches coverage changes and plan switches before the child walks in. PRIA clears prior authorizations so your staff stops chasing approvals by phone. For THSteps checkups, we confirm the periodicity schedule and file the correct age-based codes. We track timely filing deadlines per plan. Denied Medicaid claims go straight to appeal with the documentation attached.
What Types of Procedures Does Transcure Handle With Their Pediatric Billing Services?
Transcure bills the full range of pediatric procedures performed across Texas practices, from routine preventive care to hospital-based newborn services. Here are few of the all procedures supported by us:
Well-Child Visit Billing
Every Texas Health Steps checkup carries required components. We confirm each one appears in the record, then bill the correct preventive code according to the child's age.
Immunization & Vaccine Administration Billing
Texas Medicaid pays for giving the vaccine, not the vaccine itself. We report administration codes with accurate component counts, so no dose in your schedule goes unpaid.
Newborn and Nursery Care Billing
Newborn care includes initial hospital evaluation, daily nursery visits, and discharge day management. Our coders match each service to the correct code and document birth weight where payers require it.
Developmental and Behavioral Screening Billing
Autism, developmental, and mental health screenings pay separately from the checkup. We verify the validated tool appears in the note before billing, which stops the most common Texas denial.
Same-Day Sick and Preventive Visit Billing
Children often arrive sick on the day of a scheduled checkup. We confirm the record supports two distinct services, apply modifier 25, and appeal any evaluation and management line denied.
Minor Office Procedure Billing
Laceration repair, foreign body removal, nebulizer treatments, and circumcision all happen in the pediatric office. We bill each with correct modifiers and prevent bundling losses against the same-day visit.
Our Comprehensive Pediatric Billing Audit Services
Delayed payments, claim rejections, increased administrative work, and regulatory risks results in $100,000 to $150,000 loss every year in pediatric practice collections. Providers don’t know, but they can save this money if they run professional practice audits twice a year, as these expert audits help them identify potential errors in their RCM before they cause any revenue loss.
To help pediatric practices and centers save money and avoid denials, Transcure pediatric billing company provides complimentary pediatric billing audit services with complete RCM. Contact us and let our professionals identify all the problems in your RCM before it’s too late.
