Maternity & Delivery Services
Maternity and delivery services involve unique coding, billing, and reimbursement rules that can create opportunities for fraud, waste, and abuse when misunderstood or intentionally misused. This session provides investigators and analysts with a practical overview of the global maternity package, antepartum and postpartum billing, and common delivery codes before exploring real-world schemes involving unbundling, services not rendered, inappropriate billing, and improper claim submissions.
Through coding examples, investigative insights, and data-driven scenarios, participants will learn how to recognize billing patterns that warrant further review and apply practical strategies to identify potential fraud in maternity care claims.
Learning Objectives
After completing this session, participants will be able to:
- Describe the components of the global maternity package, including antepartum, delivery, and postpartum services, and explain how these services are appropriately billed.
- Differentiate between common maternity and delivery CPT codes and identify situations where separate billing may or may not be appropriate.
- Recognize common fraud, waste, and abuse schemes involving maternity and delivery services, including unbundling, duplicate billing, and services not rendered.
- Identify claims patterns and coding anomalies that may indicate improper billing and warrant additional investigation.
