Global surgery packages make medical billing easier by removing the need for separate codes for each part of the surgery and related care. However, keeping track of these packages and their codes can be challenging for new billers. Since each package involves a significant amount of money, it's crucial to avoid claim errors that could lead to denials and delayed reimbursements.

Surgical procedures involve so many elements and multiple practitioners that it's easy for something to be left off the bill. These missed charges can lead to significant revenue losses over a year. When a practitioner doesn’t bill for all the services provided, it’s known as under-billing, which not only results in lost income but is also against the law.
