Radiology billing splits every study into two parts — the technical component (the equipment and the scan) and the professional component (the radiologist’s interpretation) — and each part has its own coding rules. Add prior authorizations for advanced imaging, interventional radiology procedures, and contrast billing, and you’ve got a specialty that demands precision. Fast Billing Solutions provides radiology/imaging billing services in Long Island, NY for imaging centers, radiology groups, and hospital departments across Nassau and Suffolk counties from our office at 68 South Service Road in Melville, NY.
Professional/technical splits, prior auths, and interventional coding are the details that make radiology billing work. We handle the details. Let’s talk about your practice.
Radiology Billing That Gets the Professional and Technical Right
The foundation of radiology billing is the component split: modifier 26 for the professional interpretation, TC for the technical component, or global billing when your group does both. We code each study for the components you actually provide — no more, no less. Beyond that, we handle the authorization work that advanced imaging requires: MRIs, CTs, PET scans, and nuclear medicine all need benefits verified and authorizations secured before the patient is on the table.
Common Radiology Billing Problems We Solve
- Component billing errors — professional, technical, and global billing coded for what you actually provide.
- Prior authorization denials — advanced imaging authorized before the appointment, not after the denial.
- Interventional coding mistakes — IR procedures coded with correct catheter, imaging guidance, and intervention codes.
- Contrast billing gaps — contrast materials billed with the correct codes when separately payable.
- Missed add-on codes — 3D reconstructions, additional sequences, and bilateral studies captured fully.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do professional and technical component billing work?
When your group performs the scan and the interpretation, you bill globally. When you only interpret (or only perform), you bill the professional component (modifier 26) or technical component (modifier TC) respectively. We code each study for exactly what your group provides.
Can you manage prior authorizations for advanced imaging?
Yes. We verify benefits and secure authorizations for MRIs, CTs, PET scans, and nuclear medicine studies before the appointment — reducing both denials and day-of cancellations.
Do you bill interventional radiology procedures?
We code IR procedures with the correct catheter placement, imaging guidance, and intervention codes — the bundled coding that trips up general billers.
What does radiology billing cost?
Typically a percentage of collections, based on your study volume and modality mix. Get an instant quote for pricing specific to your group.
How quickly can you take over?
Most radiology groups transition within a few weeks. We learn your modalities, your reading arrangements, and your payer contracts, then start clean billing while working down any backlog.
