Insurance Verification
By verifying insurance information prior to claim
submission, we reduce the number of denied claims. Our
software has the ability to check eligibility for
Medicare and most large commercial payors.
»
Medical Necessity Verification
Our staff is thoroughly trained in appropriate
documentation pertaining to medical necessity guidelines
and ICD-9 coding requirements for Medicare, Medicaid and
all commercial payors.
»
Data Entry of Charges
Appropriate procedure code utilization is essential
for claim payment. Many payors have different procedure
code requirements for the same type of service and our
system is capable of meeting the various payor needs.
»
Electronic Claim Submission
Use the technology that is available with our
system. If you are not currently submitting
claims electronically, you are unnecessarily delaying
reimbursement! Studies have shown that electronic claim
submission translates to payments within 15-21 days as
opposed to 45-90 days for paper claim submission.

Payment / Adjustment Application
We understand accurate application of payment and
adjustment
activities
are essential to your record-keeping needs. In
addition,
timely
payment/adjustment posting is necessary to expedite
supplemental
claim submission.
»
Denial Posting / Appeals Process
The appeals process can be intimidating to
inexperienced billing staff. We have extensive
knowledge of the Medicare appeals process which includes
Reviews, Fair Hearings, and Administrative Law Judge
Hearings. Further remedies are available but needed
only in extreme situations.

Tailored Private Pay Schedules
You have the choice of the billing cycle to be
utilized and can custom-define the invoice messages.
You also define how many billings are sent prior to
final write-off. Lastly, you can choose the appropriate
time frame for final write-off and/or agency placement. |
