Maryland Healthcare Billing Challenges We Solve
Solving Maryland-Specific COMAR Interpretation Issues
Maryland's COMAR rules are detailed but leave a lot of room for interpretation. Two auditors can read the same section differently. This leads to denials where the provider technically followed the rule, but the reviewer followed a stricter interpretation. We at Shoreline maintains a state-specific compliance desk that keeps track of how local auditors interpret COMAR sections, recent denial trends and MCO-specific interpretations. This means Shoreline doesn't just code the claim correctly but in the way Maryland reviewers expect it, preventing surprise denials.
Managing ePREP Enrollment & Revalidation So Claims Don't Get Stuck
Maryland forces all Medicaid providers to use ePREP for enrollment, revalidation, maintenance, and ownership updates. The portal is known for hidden pending statuses, fields that auto-lock and updates that don't sync to MDH's payment system. Providers often find that their claims stop paying simply because of these issues, even if the portal insists everything is active. Our team at Shoreline monitors the ePREP daily, resolves hidden pending statuses and handles ownership updates. We ensure to see that the credentialing syncs between ePREP and MDH's claim system.
Home Health & PCS Time-Stamped Documentation Review
Maryland requires extremely detailed timestamping for services like home health, private duty nursing, personal care services (PCS), and CFSA foster care health services. Documentation must prove that the caregiver was trained under Maryland's specific guidelines. This goes beyond typical EVV standards and creates unexpected denials when the timestamp grid doesn't mirror the POC exactly. At Shoreline we thoroughly check all EVV timestamps, visit summaries, POC alignment and caregiver compliance. Our QC team fixes mismatches before the claim is submitted resulting in more than 95% of First pass Acceptance Rate.
