Private Pay Collections
Not every patient has health insurance. In emergency cases you cannot turn down a patient just because they are not insured. After providing services to a resident of your community you are not guaranteed that they will pay you for those services. They might be grateful that you helped them, but sometimes they are not capable of compensating you for your work.
When it seems as though it is a dead end with a patient, MBA Medical Billing and Associates can help you. We offer private pay collection services. We bill your patients as needed, whether they are solely responsible for the services provided or they have to cover the remaining costs after their insurance has compensated you for the work. Electronic claim billing is a much more effective way to get the results you want.
We electronically file each patient and their claims. Using Medisoft medical billing software we can keep track of when we send out statements to patients, and when we receive payment. We can send out repeated notifications if needed. When an insurance company does not cover the full costs of treatment, the patient is left to cover the rest of the costs. They are not always aware that their insurance will not cover it all, so they are frustrated when you send them a balance of their account. That could be very stressful for you as their physician, so the medical billers at MBA will take it into their own hands. We can handle the claims for you, so you are not stressed about trying to contact patients.
Most patients work 40 hours a week, which is probably one of your shorter weeks. As a physician work weeks are hectic, and you are never sure about how your hours will be. You do not have time to bill a patient, or to check if you have received payment. MBA Medical Billing and Associates will alleviate some of your schedule for you. You will have more time for your practice if you let MBA Billing and Associates take care of your private pay collections needs.
