Allergy case study

How an Allergy Practice Recovered $120K in Missed Biologic and Injection Revenue
We knew biologics were a big opportunity, but we weren’t capturing it fully. Turmeric helped us dial everything in.

Client Snapshot

Practice Type: Allergy & Immunology
Location: Midwest (2 locations)
Provider Count: 2 MDs + 1 NP
Services: Allergy testing & shots, biologics (buy-and-bill), infusions, PFTs
Monthly Claims Volume: ~1,800
Payer Mix: Commercial + Medicare

The Challenge

This growing allergy practice had multiple high-revenue services, but billing complexity was limiting collections. Key issues included underbilling biologics, PFT denials, missed buy-and-bill opportunities, inconsistent shot workflows, and delayed follow-up on high-value infusion claims.

The practice was busy- but not collecting what it should have been.

Solution

Turmeric Billing implemented a specialty-specific RCM workflow designed for allergy and infusion-heavy practices:

Accurate charge capture for biologics, including unit verification and NDC tracking
Standardized allergy shot billing protocols across both locations
PFT coding audits with proper modifier usage and documentation checks
Dedicated AR follow-up team for high-value infusion and biologic claims
Weekly revenue tracking reports by service line (shotsvs biologics vs PFTs)
