Billing under a signed BAA
Specialty billingUSA

Your specialty does not fail like the others do.

Cardiology loses money on global periods. Behavioral health loses it on session limits. The coder on your account works your specialty every day, so they already know which of your payers does what.

Specialties

Every specialty we bill

Grouped by how they get paid rather than alphabetically, because a surgical practice and a therapy practice have almost nothing in common at the claim level. If yours is not here, we almost certainly still bill it, so ask.

Why it matters

A general biller is not a cheaper specialist

Every specialty fails in its own way. These are the four kinds of failure, and they are the reason we assign coders by specialty rather than by whoever is free.

Time and units

Therapy, anesthesia, neurology and behavioral health all pay on measured time. Miscount the units and the claim pays, just for less than it should.

Global periods

Surgery, orthopedics and OB/GYN bundle weeks or months of care into one payment. Everything outside the bundle has to be identified or it is given away.

Authorization and coverage rules

Pain management, oncology and radiology need approval before the service. Afterwards is too late, and the cost has already been incurred.

Documentation that carries the code

Dermatology, podiatry and chiropractic are denied on what the note says, not on what was done. The fix is upstream of billing.

Getting started

How a specialty account is set up

Four weeks from signature to steady state, with the audit first so you know what you are buying.

  1. Free 90 day audit

    We read ninety days of your claims and tell you what your specialty is losing money on. If your billing is already healthy we will say so and there is no charge either way.

  2. Coder assigned

    Somebody who works your specialty daily is named to your account, with a direct line and an email. Not a ticket queue.

  3. Payer rules loaded

    Your specific payer mix, their edits and their authorization requirements are set up before the first claim goes out.

  4. Parallel run

    We run alongside your current process for the first cycle so nothing is dropped in the handover.

  5. Steady state and reporting

    Monthly numbers by procedure family, and the aged A/R worked oldest first from day one.

Questions

What practices ask before switching

We are a multi specialty group. Can you handle that?

Yes, and it is a good fit. Each specialty gets its own coder and its own reporting, so the cardiology numbers are not averaged into the family practice numbers.

Do we have to change practice management software?

No. We log into your existing system and work inside it. No migration, no new license and no retraining your front desk.

What happens to our current aged A/R?

We take it. The aging is worked oldest first, and we separate what is still inside filing windows from what is not before anyone spends time on it.

How long until we see a difference?

The first full cycle is the honest answer, because that is when clean claims submitted under the new process finish adjudicating. Denial turnaround changes immediately.

What if our specialty is not listed?

Ask. We would rather turn the work down than learn your specialty on your claims, and we will tell you plainly which it is.

Next step

Do not see your specialty?
