The telehealth billing specialist's role is to provide billing within their billing scope — including telehealth CPT billing, telehealth modifier application, telehealth POS codes, telehealth billing compliance, telehealth claims submission, telehealth appeals, and telehealth billing reporting. Clinical decisions, patient care decisions, and clinical documentation decisions remain with clinical leadership and provider documentation; the telehealth billing specialist supports the billing process and coordinates with telehealth program teams, clinical teams, and revenue cycle teams.
