The problem
Precision changes everything.
The same encounter can follow a different coverage path depending on why the patient is being seen.
It may happen during the exam without being automatically included or covered.
Diagnosis, procedure, modifier, and documentation need to identify the same eye.
Preoperative testing, surgery, the second eye, and postoperative care can each change what is billable.
OCT, visual fields, and imaging require medical necessity tied to the condition being evaluated.

Common questions
What teams ask us.
Answered clearly, without the sales pitch.
What makes ophthalmology and optometry billing different?
Medical treatment, routine vision care, testing, injections, surgery, and optical services may share one workflow while following different coverage paths.
What eye-care logic does RCx include?
Current content addresses laterality, cataract procedures, refraction, ophthalmic drug units, injections, diagnostic imaging, eyelid modifiers, medical necessity, and procedure bundling.
Does RCx automatically correct eye-care charges?
Routine findings—such as laterality conflicts, drug units, eyelid modifiers, refraction handling, and selected bundled services—can be corrected before claim creation. Cases requiring judgment stay with your team.
What does ClaimStaker add?
Can RCX apply the same standards across locations?
Can Aptarro learn from eye-care payment outcomes?
Yes. RemitIntel uses claims, remittances, payer policy, and relevant network intelligence to predict where denials may repeat and recommend preventive logic for your approval.
Does Aptarro work with our existing EHR and practice management system?
Yes. Aptarro brings reimbursement intelligence into existing EHR and PM workflows, improving charge and claim decisions without adding another system for staff to manage.
