What Is a Claim Scrubber and Why It’s Vital for Medical Billing Success

Introduction

In medical billing, accuracy is everything. A single error can delay payments or lead to costly denials. TBC Solutions uses cutting-edge claim scrubber technology to ensure your claims are clean, compliant, and processed faster. Here’s what a claim scrubber is—and why your practice needs one.

What Is a Claim Scrubber?

A claim scrubber is a specialized software tool that automatically checks your insurance claims for errors before submission. It flags coding issues, missing data, and payer-specific rule violations to help ensure claims are accepted on the first attempt.

Common checks include:

  • CPT and ICD-10 code accuracy
  • Suitable use of modifiers
  • Patient and provider with complete information
  • Medical necessity validation
  • Duplicate or inconsistent charges

How Claim Scrubbers Work

Claim scrubbers integrate with your electronic medical records (EMR) or billing software. Before claims are submitted to clearinghouses or payers, they’re scanned for compliance with industry and payer-specific rules.

Top-tier scrubbers provide:

  • Real-time claim edits
  • AI-driven prediction tools
  • Compliance with CMS and private payer rules
  • Custom edit rules and correction suggestions
