Alabama’s statute of limitations for medical billing is generally two years from the date of service. However, insurance companies have much shorter filing deadlines; typically 90 to 180 days for commercial payers, 365 days for Medicare, and 12 months for Alabama Medicaid. Missing these deadlines forfeits your right to payment, which is why timely claim submission is critical.
The top five denial reasons are:
A Local Coverage Determination (LCD) is a Medicare policy that defines which tests are covered, which ICD-10 codes support medical necessity, and testing frequency limitations. Alabama falls under Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) Jurisdiction J (JJ), administered by Palmetto GBA, which maintains strict LCDs for molecular and genetic testing. Billing a test with a non-covered diagnosis code results in automatic denial and potential audit exposure.
