3 Key Reasons to Outsource Your Medical Billing for Better Efficiency and Growth

Outsource medical billing is a game-changer for healthcare practices, bringing efficiency, accuracy, and financial control. Here are three compelling reasons to consider outsourcing your medical billing:

1. Improve Efficiency and Reduce Operational Costs Outsourcing medical billing allows practices to significantly reduce overhead costs associated with in-house billing teams. By leveraging external expertise, practices can streamline administrative tasks, such as claims submission, payment posting, and insurance verification, leading to faster processing times and a reduction in staffing costs. Moreover, outsourced billing services often have specialized knowledge of the latest healthcare regulations and coding systems, ensuring accurate and efficient billing practices that minimize errors. This means your practice can focus more on providing quality care to patients rather than managing time-consuming administrative work.

2. Maximize Revenue and Improve Cash Flow One of the key benefits of outsourcing medical billing is the potential to boost your revenue collection rate. Professional billing services use advanced software tools to ensure that claims are submitted accurately and promptly, reducing the chances of rejections or denials. Outsourcing helps improve the clean claim rate, with many services reporting rates of over 98%. By effectively managing your practice’s accounts receivable, outsourcing providers can help reduce the number of unpaid claims, optimize reimbursement, and increase overall revenue, ensuring that your practice’s cash flow remains steady and predictable.

3. Compliance and Risk Management Healthcare regulations, such as HIPAA, and the constantly changing coding systems (like ICD-10) can make it difficult for in-house billing teams to keep up. Outsourcing your medical billing ensures that your practice is compliant with all regulatory requirements, minimizing the risk of audits and penalties. Reputable billing providers are well-versed in industry standards and the latest coding practices, which means they can handle everything from credentialing to claims denials efficiently. This reduces the compliance burden on your practice, allowing you to focus on what matters most—patient care.

Outsourcing medical billing not only streamlines your practice’s operations but also ensures that you can focus on providing excellent patient care while experts handle the complexities of revenue cycle management. By improving efficiency, maximizing revenue, and ensuring compliance, outsourcing medical billing is a smart choice for practices of all sizes looking to thrive in today’s fast-paced healthcare environment.

Outsource medical billing today and let the experts handle the complexities while you focus on growing your practice

You've doubtless seen the outpourings of sarcastic graveyard humor about Thompson's murder. People hate Unitedhealthcare, for good reason, because he personally decided – or approved – countless policies that killed people by cheating them until they died. Nurses and doctors hate Thompson and United. United kills people, for money. During the most acute phase of the pandemic, the company charged the US government $11,000 for each $8 covid test: https://pluralistic.net/2020/09/06/137300-pct-markup/#137300-pct-markup UHC leads the nation in claims denials, with a denial rate of 32% (!!). If you want to understand how the US can spend 20% of its GDP and get the worst health outcomes in the world, just connect the dots between those two facts: the largest health insurer in human history charges the government a 183,300% markup on covid tests and also denies a third of its claims. UHC is a vertically integrated, murdering health profiteer. They bought Optum, the largest pharmacy benefit manager ("A spreadsheet with political power" -Matt Stoller) in the country. Then they starved Optum of IT investment in order to give more money to their shareholders. Then Optum was hacked by ransomware gang and no one could get their prescriptions for weeks. This killed people: https://www.economicliberties.us/press-release/malicious-threat-actor-accesses-unitedhealth-groups-monopolistic-data-exchange-harming-patients-and-pharmacists/# The irony is, Optum is terrible even when it's not hacked. The purpose of Optum is to make you pay more for pharmaceuticals. If that's more than you can afford, you die. Optum �� that is, UHC – kills people: https://pluralistic.net/2024/09/23/shield-of-boringness/#some-men-rob-you-with-a-fountain-pen Optum isn't the only murderous UHC division. Take Navihealth, an algorithm that United uses to kick people out of their hospital beds even if they're so frail, sick or injured they can't stand or walk. Doctors and nurses routinely watch their gravely ill patients get thrown out of their hospitals. Many die. UHC kills them, for money: https://prospect.org/health/2024-08-16-steward-bankruptcy-physicians-private-equity/ The patients murdered by Navihealth are on Medicare Advantage. Medicare is the public health care system the USA extends to old people. Medicare Advantage is a privatized system you can swap your Medicare coverage for, and UHC leads the country in Medicare Advantage, blitzing seniors with deceptive ads that trick them into signing up for UHC Medicare Advantage. Seniors who do this lose access to their doctors and specialists, have to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for their medication, and get hit with $400 surprise bills to use the "free" ambulance service: https://prospect.org/health/2024-12-05-manhattan-medicare-murder-mystery/

Pluralistic: Predicting the present (09 Dec 2024) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

[shiraishi--kanade]

Wait so you have universal health care and also have huge medical bills??? I'm genuinely confused

Anon, you're probably American and you know what, I'm as confused about how American healthcare works and how therefore you guys imagine universal healthcare works as you are, so I'm not going to hold it against you.

But here's how it works in my country:

1. I have a heart disease. I go to a cardiologist in my city. My cardiologist takes one good look at me and says: "I'm sorry, we have nothing to help you here"- (because they lack the medical equipment, educated staff, or, in more cases than not, both). -"Here's reception contact for our state cardiology clinic, please go there."

2. So I go to the state clinic (that is located a fair distance away). They take a closer look at me, and they would treat about 60% cases that come to them, but then will also say "here's your meds and diagnosis but we don't have the equipment or staff to be 100% sure this is what's wrong. Have you considered..."

And then they refer me to a private hospital. Or a private clinic. Regardless, a private doctor, who charges their patients like everyone else does, and that pay goes up in thousands and tens of thousands for diagnostic processing or monitoring alone. And that's where I actually get my treatment. And my bills. Because regardless if you have universal healthcare or not, healthcare industry exists and will continue to exist.

State-funded healthcare (which we call free but it's not actually free, it's just paid for you by the state) will never be able to compete with the private healthcare industry because 1) the state doesn't receive any profit, and in fact only loses money on providing healthcare, 2) the state therefore does only the bare minimum to keep up with the demand, and usually doesn't necessitate enough funding to provide new technology and equipment or training, if any, 3) the medical staff, who have no equipment or training or pay, says "screw this, I'm out" and goes into the private field, where they actually have a shot at having a decent pay and working conditions.

Therefore the universal healthcare institution grows only weaker.

Is it fucked up? Yeah. Does it bring unnecessary suffering to anyone? Also yeah. But if you're any level of smart in this situation you'd just skip the first two steps and immediately go and pay to get treated properly instead of risk wasting PTO, gas and possibly your pre-existing condition flaring up to go through the routine.

And this is also why medical insurance is starting to get traction in my country with universal healthcare, because universal healthcare doesn't mean that you can get all the medical services free of charge but rather that there are options provided for you. No-one ever said these options have to not suck, especially for someone with a chronic condition. Fun!

Still better than the USA though I will admit to that.

[vixvaporub]

Every post you make about health care in the US makes me so glad that I don't live there. I recently had a medical emergency that required major surgery, a heap of drugs, a two week stay in the hospital, physio, and that's not to mention the many follow up visits at the hospital, home care nurses for dressing changes, and another major surgery in the not too distant future. I've probably paid less than $200 (prescriptions, medical supplies, postage to get it to my house etc) since I left the hospital. It literally boggles the mind that over there people would have problems getting treated/paying bills for such an essential life saving service.

I'm happy you can appreciate what you have with how I speak about our healthcare system here in the USA. Insurance here is such a scam and it's ridiculous that people are able to make millions working at a insurance company meanwhile its a struggle for insurance to pay for anything

[lastlycoris]

Things that make you angry about medicine?

You really want to watch the world burn, huh. Alright.

Is it the fact that I live in a nation with privatized healthcare that spends more money per capita than any other country in the world but still can't deliver top quality care? There was a paper about where the USA stands against Australia, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, and the UK in multiple health care metrics - and manages to find itself last. (Netherlands happens to be first while spending half the money the USA spends.)

Or maybe it's the fact that life-saving medications are sold at such expensive prices despite having such low manufacturing costs? Yeah, I'm looking at you, insulin and insulin analogues. It takes around $2-3 to make a vial of insulin analog, yet these pharmaceutical companies are selling it for over $50 to $100 to even $300.

Or how about the anti-cancer drug Gleevec / Imatinib? A year of Imatinib costs $159 to make but is sold for over $100000 to patients. And this isn't tied to any sort of research and development or market forces. It's just simply greed. To everyone involved in that garbage, was your conscience eaten by dogs?

---

Let's talk about privatized health care / insurance - the sort that only exists to make a profit and are driving up health care costs. How? The hospital sends a bill to the the private insurance - the insurance decides which services it will reimburse for and sends the bill to both patient and hospital. Insurance tries to pay the hospital as little as possible as it exists only to make a profit, which means the hospital will get badly stiffed if it continues to play insurance's game and accepts their lowball - so the hospital counters by increasing the prices on everything to try and make insurance pay its fair share.

The result? A devastating bill that you, the patient, have to pay should you not have insurance because of this horrible back and forth between hospital and insurance companies.

Privatized health care might've been something good early on its creation where it provided stability to hospitals by providing it a more regular income flow. But it's a rotten institution now. And that's because the insurance companies don't care about patients, just profit. At least with socialized health care, the government has to at least pretend to care for the people as people are both voters and a country's resource. But you'll never get socialized healthcare here because private insurance is so entrenched now that they will lobby any attempt to get socialized healthcare to death.

Kathy Davis, 26 (USA 1987)

Kathy Denise Snorton Davis was 26 years old. She worked as a billing clerk in Ohio and was married to Harold Davis.

On February 6, 1987, Harold became a widower. Kathy died at the Cleveland Metropolitan General Hospital, which documented her cause of death on the death certificate as heart failure and hypertension as complications of a legal abortion. For some reason, no autopsy was ever performed on Kathy’s body.

Kathy left behind her grieving husband and her father Lammar, who had to cope with burying his daughter and grandchild.
