OB/GYN Medical Billing Services | AMS Solutions

Specialized Billing for Women’s Health Practices Nationwide

“We take care of you, so you can take care of your patients.”

For more than three decades, AMS Solutions has handled medical billing for OB/GYN and women’s health practices across the United States. We’re U.S.-based, in-house, AAPC-certified, and HIPAA-compliant — and we know OB/GYN coding inside and out, from the global obstetric package to well-woman visits to the upcoming 2027 transition away from bundled maternity codes.

This page walks through how AMS handles OB/GYN billing, the codes and modifiers we work with daily, and what to expect when you partner with us.

A Bespoke Team for Your OB/GYN Practice

Every AMS client is assigned a dedicated billing team led by an Account Manager you can reach directly — no overseas call centers, no phone trees, no handoffs between strangers. Your team is built specifically for OB/GYN coding nuances and the EMR/EHR you already use (Epic, eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, Practice Fusion, and others).

• Account Manager — your single point of contact, hands-on with daily RCM, charge capture, rejection resolution, and denial work.
• Billing Specialists — focused on OB/GYN-specific claim submission, payer rules, and global-package tracking.
• Director of Operations — workflow design, SOP development, audit.
• Credentialing Team — provider enrollment, revalidations, payer maintenance.

OB/GYN Billing Expertise

OB/GYN is one of the most complex specialties in medical billing because it bundles months of care into single global codes, requires careful split-billing when care transfers between providers, and is subject to a major 2027 coding overhaul. We’ve built specific operational depth in every part of it.

The Global Obstetric Package

When a single provider or group manages a complete pregnancy, billing rolls up into one global code:

• CPT 59400 — Vaginal delivery, antepartum care, postpartum care
• CPT 59510 — Cesarean delivery, antepartum care, postpartum care
• CPT 59610 — VBAC delivery (after previous cesarean), antepartum care, postpartum care
• CPT 59618 — Cesarean after attempted VBAC, antepartum care, postpartum care

Each global code bundles approximately 13 prenatal visits, the delivery, and routine postpartum follow-up through 6 weeks.

Split Billing (When the Global Doesn’t Apply)

The global package only applies when a single provider or group manages the entire pregnancy. Real life rarely cooperates. We routinely handle split billing for transfer of care mid-pregnancy, late prenatal entry, insurance change mid-pregnancy, and deliveries performed by a different provider than antepartum care. The codes:

• CPT 59425 — Antepartum care, 4–6 visits
• CPT 59426 — Antepartum care, 7+ visits
• CPT 59430 — Postpartum care only
• CPT 59409 — Vaginal delivery only (no antepartum or postpartum)
• CPT 59514 — Cesarean delivery only (no antepartum or postpartum)

Services Excluded from the Global Package

Services that should always be billed separately — and that practices often forget to capture:

• Initial pregnancy confirmation visits
• Non-routine laboratory tests
• Amniocentesis
• Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
• External cephalic version (ECV)
• Cervical cerclage
• Management of unrelated medical conditions
• Third- or fourth-degree laceration repair
• Contraceptive insertion (e.g., IUD placement post-delivery)

Well-Woman Visits & Preventive Care

Annual gynecological exams, Pap smears, breast exams, and contraceptive management each have specific coding rules under preventive vs. problem-focused E&M. Modifier -25 is required when a problem-focused E&M is performed at the same visit as a preventive service. Our team tracks these distinctions on every claim.

IUD Insertion and Contraceptive Management

IUD placement (CPT 58300), IUD removal (CPT 58301), Implanon and Nexplanon insertion and removal, and contraceptive counseling each have payer-specific rules and modifier requirements. We bill the device and the procedure separately when the payer requires it.

The 2027 Maternity Coding Transition

In 2027, CMS and AMA are phasing out the bundled global-OB codes in favor of discrete service-based codes — meaning each prenatal visit, delivery component, and postpartum service will be billed individually. This is the biggest OB/GYN coding shift in decades, and practices that aren’t ready will see revenue disruption in Q1 2027. We’re already preparing client workflows for the transition.

A Proven Process

• Claims submitted within 24 hours of creation
• Checked, scrubbed, and submitted daily
• Denials and rejections handled immediately
• ERAs/EOBs posted upon receipt
• Monthly custom financial health report
• Regular meetings to refine workflows

Security & Compliance

• HIPAA compliant. Every client practice signs a Business Associate Agreement (BAA). Safeguards meet HIPAA requirements.
• Secure systems. Encrypted data and secure networks for every workflow involving patient information.
• Role-based access. Sensitive information is controlled, audit-logged, and limited to team members who need it.
• AAPC-certified staff. Our billers and coders hold AAPC credentials (CPC, CPB), and continuing education keeps them current as payer policy evolves.

How Even a Small Improvement Makes a Big Difference

A practice with $250,000 in monthly collections and an 8% denial rate is leaving roughly $20,000 on the table every month. Cut that denial rate to 4% — realistic when claims are scrubbed properly and denials are worked immediately — and you recover roughly $10,000 a month. That’s $120,000 a year in revenue that was already yours.

Example for illustration purposes only. Actual results vary by specialty, payer mix, volume, workflow, and current billing performance.

If you’re considering switching billing partners — or moving from in-house to outsourced for the first time — we offer a free practice audit. Within two weeks you’ll receive a written report covering your clean claim rate, denial breakdown by category, days in AR by payer, and the specific revenue we believe is recoverable. The audit is yours whether you hire us or not.
