Electronic Claims Submission :
In the complete Medical Billing solution, claims submission plays a vital role. We file most of the claims filed electronically and only a few
go on paper (depending on the insurance carrier).
With our expertise with various medical billing software, we provide a range of options to the client about the Software for Billing. We can use the existing software of the client to file the claims, or the client has the option of chosing the software for their billing.
With endeavor to submit all the claims electronically, we provide following advantages -
- Very low claim rejection rate (upto 98% of claims acceptance rate).
- 50% reduction in time for payment of claims.
- Reduced cost of claims submission.
- Claims submitted within 48 hrs.
Charge Posting :
MediXperts provides professional charge entry services that include daily posting, monitoring and re-submission of denied claims. Our QA executives work closely with other departments to ensure correct and timely filing of your electronic and paper claims and to minimize claims denials. Some of the charge entry functions are –
- Demographics data entry - The charge entry team enters the patient personal information from the Demographic sheets.
- CPT validation - They also check for the relationship of the Diagnosis code and CPT.
- Charge creation - Then the team member creates a charge, according to the billing rules pertaining to the specific carriers and locations. All charges are accomplished within the agreed turnaround time with the client, which is generally 24 hours .
Payment Posting :
There are more than 5 billion medical claims filed each year in the United States . Of these, 30% are delayed or denied on first submission. Fifty percent of those denied claims are never resubmitted. The average length of accounts receivable in most medical practices approaches 70 days . Number of times such errors may have resulted in due to inaccurate postings as a result the money realization is lower. Due to time limit imposed by the payors, if the claim is not submitted within a certain time limit, it may not be paid.
MediXperts increases billing efficiency by reducing the gap between the DOS (date of service) and DOCE (date of charge entry). By timely submission of claims, MediXperts ensures that the turn around time for a claim is less than 24 hrs .
Payment postings are quite critical when it comes to realizing payments. As we work over it, the agents analyze the payments and post them into the Billing Management System. For partial payments, analysis is done and corrective action is taken. Denial Analysis :
Billing errors, insurance underpayments, denials and self-pay bad debt account for nearly 13 percent of a hospital's lost revenue each year. Every provider has the experience of lost revenue and third party payor denials.
MediXperts specializes in creating a successful revenue recovery system and the clients get a substantial return on investment. MediXperts Claim Denial executives hold rich experience in the Claims Denial Analysis. They carefully analyze the EOBs and claims to take the necessary actions to recover the due amount. Records Management :
MediXperts emphasize on the speed and accuracy of record management, since this has a direct impact on efficiency, resources and profits. We convert the patient's entire medical and demographic records from the paper format to the electronic media.
As specified by HIPAA, records are secure, encrypted and have the facility of e-signatures. Document management fills in the gap between a mere creation of an electronic version of patient records and a complete PRS (Patient Records System) where data can be centrally archived, distributed, and mined in a secured environment. This system enables efficient records management for the patients.
The newest technology supports remote coding, indexing and claims processing. The application electronically tracks a patient encounter in a central database from the time the patient enters the system until the final payment is made on their insurance claim. A/R and Patient Collection :
