What does the Project Bad bundle aim to identify?

The Project Bad bundle is specifically designed to identify tests that are processed as part of groups yet billed individually. This means that when multiple tests are performed concurrently, they should ideally be billed as a collective unit to ensure accuracy in billing and compliance with regulations. However, if these tests are billed separately, it can lead to discrepancies, potentially resulting in overbilling or claims being rejected. Recognizing and correcting such billing practices is essential for maintaining compliance and ensuring that healthcare providers receive appropriate reimbursement while adhering to regulations. Therefore, the focus of the Project Bad bundle on this specific area suggests an effort to streamline billing processes and enhance the accuracy of claims submitted for reimbursement.
