WHY IT MAKES GOOD FINANCIAL SENSE TO OUTSOURCE THROUGH US FOR REVENUE RECOVERY:

A 2016 Black Book survey revealed that medical business office outsourcing was slated to increase 30 percent in the next year among practices with 25 physicians or fewer because of declining reimbursement rates and value-based care models.

The survey further reported that 59 percent of medical providers and 86 percent of hospitals said that their organizations plan to eliminate medical billing processes that are resource-intensive, error prone, manual, and back-end. These providers pinpointed five factors other than declining reimbursement that caused their organizations to consider revenue cycle management and medical billing outsourcing, including:

• Inefficient billing processes
• High staff turnover rates*
• Lack of health IT know-how
• Stress of financial and staff management
• Declines in direct patient care time

Claim processing is the economic life blood of a practice and a new or replacement employee in the billing department inevitably leads to slowdown in the processing of claims, which means a slowdown in receiving your money.

82% of practices that elected to outsource business office services in the third quarter of 2015 experienced a decline in the number of rejected claims and the time it takes to collect payments from payers during the first two months after outsourcing implementation.

Why do most medical billing companies choose not to focus on insurance A/R?

• It is extremely time intensive and complex; very few billing companies have the knowledge and expertise available to analyze and recover the unpaid A/R. This is a major differentiator between MedXPrime Revenue Recovery and other companies.
• A recent study by the American Medical Association found that medical practices spend almost $15,000 annually on phone calls, investigative work, and claims appeals associated with reworking claims, only to be unsuccessful in maintaining satisfactory collections. This is in addition to the millions of dollars left on the table every single year due to under-reimbursement.

Why are we so successful in collecting on old claims?

We understand the issues that cause denials:

• Incomplete or incorrect coding, bundled services, pre-authorizations or referral not obtained, demographic errors on claims, failure to prove medical necessity, missed timely filing deadlines.
• We have a solid understanding of corrective actions to take regardless of the denial reason given. Our team’s track record (collecting $200 million on a $360 million project) and expertise in this area are what set us apart from the competition.
• We not only collect on old claims but the information we share tremendously helps the client in reducing denials in the future.
