Why practices should outsource the billing process?

 Outsourcing the billing services can reduce practices’ overhead costs, increase in reimbursements, decrease in claim denials and rejections. This can enable practices to focus more on their patients rather than spending hours on constructing and interpreting the billing reports.

The medical billing providers provide dashboards that easily show the issues with the medical accounts. The practice can easily check and maintain patient volumes, procedure mixes, collections, days in AR and major denials. All this makes it easier for practice to handle their patients’ financial matters and in a less time-consuming manner.

An in-house billing software and hardware costs are high. In addition, to train the front office staff to be able to use this software in and out, can add to the expenses. Further, if the employee operating the in- house system quits the job or is on leave then this can lead to more denials and pending claims.

By outsourcing to the highly experienced behavioral health experts, there will be accuracy in correct codes, terminologies, etc.

When should the practice consider outsourcing?

  • When the practices’ billing process is insufficient
  • When the staff and practitioners’ are not technologically sound
  • When the practice has high staff turnover
  • When the provider is new

Outsourcing to an expert billing company will supply the practice with comprehensive performance reports that are automatically generated or given upon request. This helps the providers’ to know where the practice stands financially. There will be enhanced consistency without worry about staffing and rejected claims.

When it comes to mental or behavioral health billing, there could be frustration due to the type of services offered. Most psychiatrists provide therapy sessions and related services rather than performing an x-ray or an eye-exam.

The practices have to be updated on healthcare billing codes, changing regulations and each insurance companies’ billing practices; otherwise, the rejection rates will be high. To process the claim successfully without consuming much time, the practice should:

  • Apply the appropriate code for the treatment.
  • Include the appropriate policy number along with the claim.
  • Be able to limit the bill’s total, to the fees allowed by the patient’s insurance policy.
  • Receive the pre-approval for the treatments when needed by the insurance plan.
  • Using the required billing format for each insurance company.

Thus, behavioral medical billing is much more complicated than regular medical billing, which is straightforward with fewer pitfalls. Some other concerns that behavioral practices can overcome easily are:

  • To stay updated with preferred filing methods of the insurance company.
  • To encourage cash payments from the patients who have no insurance coverage.
  • To check thoroughly, the policies and coverage lapses.
