“Should You Outsource Your Medical Billing”

My buddy Chris over at Software Advice recently penned a post, “Should You Outsource Your Medical Billing,” which I blogged about recently. He has a follow up article on selecting a medical billing service which I also wanted to mention.

The first article compared outsourcing the revenue cycle management process to managing that function in-house with medical billing systems. Assuming you go for the former option – outsourcing – this post will help you make the right choice of medical billing service companies.

How can a provider tell the difference between a fly-by-night medical billing company and one to which they can hand overtheir patient’s medical information with confidence? If a physician knows what criteria by which to judge a medical billing service, they’ll be able to select a company that will significantly decrease their time spent on billing issues and increase their time spent on patient care.

To choose correctly, a provider will need to evaluate these five key criteria when choosing a medical billing company:

  • Level of service;
  • Industry experience;
  • Use of technology;
  • Pricing model; and,
  • Capacity to take on new clients.
