FAQs
Do you follow up on unpaid claims?
Yes, we do. Our billing experts thoroughly evaluate your accounts receivable position and identify denied claims, unpaid claims, and low payments. Claims are re-submitted with any additional information needed. With timely follow-up and appeals, we help accelerate your cash flow and minimize accounts receivable days.
How do you manage patient collections?
Our patient responsibility management services include sending patient statements in a timely manner (sometimes adjusted according to client preference). In addition, we follow up with a demand letter and phone calls. We see that timely follow-up helps in obtaining quicker reimbursement. If for any reason we find the efforts futile, we will work with a collection agency or an attorney for collections if our client feels that step is necessary.
Is your company HIPAA-compliant?
Yes, we are fully compliant with HIPAA rules and standards. Our stringent data security policies are designed to ensure that all patient information remains safe and secure. Security measures are taken in-house as well as during the transfer of files. Our entire workforce is trained on privacy, security, and confidentiality, and all our employees must sign a confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement. Contractual agreements with all business parties are maintained and up-to-date.
To start off, do we have to entrust our whole revenue cycle management to you?
No. We are extremely flexible when it comes to our outsourced revenue cycle management.
