Revenue Codes vs CPT/HCPCS Edits: Does Your Chargemaster Reflect Best Matches?

A hospital chargemaster is a comprehensive list of a hospital’s products, procedures, and services. Everything from prescription drugs to supplies for diagnostic tests has a unique price listing in the chargemaster. Major components include revenue codes that reflect the site of service and applicable CPT/HCPCS codes that indicate the service provided/charged.

Poor matches between these code sets may lead to distorted cost centers, lost revenue, charges bundled that should be separately reported and incomplete departmental charging.
