- We examine each claim to confirm that all pertinent fields are complete and accurate
- We ensure that proper codes are entered for diagnoses and procedures
- We match patient visits to bills to identify potentially missing charges
- We arrange for insurance authorizations and maintain a database of requirements
- We investigate claim denials and rejections for resubmittal
- We communicate with carriers and insist on proper reimbursement
- We pursue all claims regardless of size to reduce bad debt
- We scrutinize EOBs for accuracy and post them daily
- We address needs for further information with patients and your staff
