-
All billing agencies promise reimbursement increases, why are you better?"Increasing reimbursement is dependent on your current collection rate. If your time in AR ratio is high we can significantly increase it very quickly, but there are many variables. The billing function itself involves more than just processing claims. We look at billing from the time the patient makes the appointment to the time the check is in the bank. Follow-up, feedback and working with the doctors makes a big difference and that is what we do better.
-
Are there any initial delays in billing claims, if we start with your company?"No. If we have some advance notice we can have the electronic billing (Medicare – Commercial) setup prior to start.
