Medical Billing Jobs - Our Specialists Mangage Your Accounts Payable And Receivable

Another way to increase profitability with a Medical Billing Service is through trending.

Florida, FL (prHWY.com) September 27, 2012 - Florida, Sep 26, 2012 - Another way to increase profitability with a Medical Billing Service is through trending. When payments are getting posted to codes, the billers often see a trend to what codes are being paid and how much is being received per code. This can often lead to two different scenarios. One being that certain codes are not being paid on, which in turn allows the practice to decide whether or not to continue to offer that service to their patients, or find an alternative or comparable service that they can provide and which will be paid. The second scenario is that the practice is performing a procedure often, therefore allowing a renegotiation with the Insurance Carrier of how much to be compensated.

Medical Billing Jobs - When a physician is confident that the financial aspect of their business is in good hands, and is not worried about whether or not claims are being submitted and money is being collected, they can focus on what is the most important aspects of a physician's job - patient care. With a Medical Billing Service if there is a code in question or a diagnosis code that cannot be found, the Medical Billing Service will be able to assist in finding that code. This in turn allows the physician to keep on seeing patients and charting without skipping a beat, instead of sitting and trying to figure out what the code is.

Similar to trending, which helps increase profitability, a similar trend happens when the billers are reviewing claims prior to them being submitted to the insurance carrier. The billers will assist the physicians when there is a conflict in the codes being billed or if they see something that is being repeated that will help the physician and save them time when doing their chart notes. Many Medical Billing Services offer the services of a Business Analyst who will work with the physician and their office staff and provide suggestions on how to maximize the usage of tools on hand (i.e. EMR, MAs, office flow, etc). This will increase efficiency and productivity.

Health Management Information - Many office staff members do not realize the importance of their job; not realizing that they are projecting the first impression on patients that walk through the door. Properly trained office staff will give more of their attention to the patients, which in turn will be appreciated by those patients who are also more likely to recommend the physician to their friends and relatives. Along with increasing the efficiency of the office a Medical Billing Service also eliminates many patient calls regarding their accounts. When a patient has a question regarding a statement, or a bill that they have received either from the office or an insurance carrier, the call is handled by the Medical Billing Service. They are able to assist your patient in a professional manner, without the pressure of having to check in patients, answer the phone, etc.
