If you have decided to hire a medical billing service for your practice, you now have a big decision to make—who will you choose to manage this crucial aspect of your business’s success? There are a lot of choices out there. This FAQ will help.
This is always the main thing on everyone’s mind. The rate should be under 8% of collected charges. A percentage is a better option than a flat rate—the percentage usually goes down as your collections go up. Also ask about start-up fees, termination fees, data conversion fees, and any other additional costs. Some companies charge extra for patient collections follow up and other services.
Have they worked with practices that are similar to yours in size, scope, and/or specialty? Do they have testimonials, or can you call someone directly for a reference?
Your billing data should belong to you, and you should be able to take it with you if you choose to change services or bring your billing in-house.
Are they certified? What type of ongoing training do they receive? Are they using the most up-to-date resources and guidebooks (i.e., CPT, HCPCS, etc.)?
Does the service, or its employees, maintain any professional affiliations such as HBMA?
Are they HIPAA compliant? What are their security protocols?
Can you meet (on the phone or in person) the actual people who will be working on your account?
How often will you receive reports showing the financial state of your business and the billing service’s progress. How will they communicate with you and how involved will you be in the billing processes?
In this day and age, most of the processes should be electronic from eligibility verification to remittances. They should also offer credit card processing and online bill pay for patients.
Don’t assume that a billing service will do everything or that everything is included in your rate. Ask up front and be sure you know if there are services that they don’t offer.
