Healthcare revenue cycles become more complex day-by-day. Hence, outsourcing to revenue cycle specialists, like Medwave, is an increasingly attractive option.Below, we\u2019ll explore why we rise above the rest as the top medical billing service for providers.Deep Medical Billing ExpertiseWe employ dedicated teams of credentialed medical billing and coding experts with an average of over 10 years industry experience each. Our proficiency spans the full revenue cycle. From verifying eligibility and benefits to final payment posting. Years navigating complex payer policies equips them to achieve both clean claim rates and first-pass resolution ratios exceeding industry averages. Our rigorous training curriculum and continuing education ensure staff are constantly up-to-date on the latest protocols, guidelines, and system workflows essential for billing success.All Source EHR Platform ExpertiseOur teams are well-versed in all major electronic health record systems including Epic, Cerner, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, athenaHealth, Allscripts, Meditech, and more. Our insight into EHR data structure and capabilities allows seamless integration for automated eligibility checks, coding recommendation, rules-based claim compilation and more. This reduces manual work while boosting compliance. Robust dashboards provide real-time visibility into KPIs.Customized Billing ApproachWe eschew the \u201cone-size-fits-all\u201d approach, instead customizing our solutions to fit each client\u2019s unique needs across specialties, settings, EHRs, and workflows. We assess current processes to identify improvement opportunities.Meticulous business rules configuration enables claims to be generated accurately according to each client\u2019s requirements.Our experts then handle all aspects of the billing process on the back end via well-honed protocols. Ongoing performance analyses help identify issues early. This proactive approach ensures maximum reimbursement rates while minimizing claim denials and accelerating your revenue cycle.Faster Reimbursement TurnaroundThrough leveraging electronic claims submission, automated workflows, and proactive follow up, Medwave expedites reimbursement turnaround time compared to in-house efforts. Clean claims and efficient correction reduce rejection rates that slow cash flow. Experts preview claims pre-submission to fix errors proactively. Additionally, we have direct contact with payer representatives to escalate delayed payments for faster resolution. Reporting provides visibility into unpaid claims by payer and reason for easy follow-up.Denial and Appeal WizardsOne key advantage is our team of denial and appeal specialists. They manage the entire appeals process upon claim rejection as an extension of your practice. Our billers have deep knowledge of payer-specific reasons for denials and required documentation to overcome them. Every denial is evaluated for appeal opportunity. Communications with payers are professional and persistent to achieve an optimal overturn rate.State-of-the-Art Revenue Cycle TechnologyWe Optimize Billing Via Integrated Systems and AutomationPredictive analytics to anticipate potential claim trouble spotsRobotic process automation for high volume repetitive tasksReal-time metrics dashboards with drill-down visibilityRules-driven workflows to error-proof processesIntelligent workflows to route tasks and escalationsCustom reporting with scheduling and distributionAppointment scheduling-integrated eligibility checksPatient balance estimations and collections toolsAutomated claim status monitoring and follow upThis technology amplifies staff productivity while reducing manual effort and redundancy.Detailed Reporting and AnalyticsTo enhance financial performance, we provide in-depth reporting on the most impactful medical billing metrics and KPIs. This includes denial rates, first-pass resolution, days in A\/R, clean claim percentages, collection rates and more. Data integrations coalesce practice management, EHR, and other system information to uncover optimization opportunities. Our team reviews reports with clients routinely to discuss trends, deviations, and action plans.Robotic Process AutomationRobotic process automation (RPA) is transforming efficiency in medical billing departments by automating high volume repetitive tasks previously requiring manual work by billing staff. For example, software bots can pull data from unstructured eligibility verification documents or statements to auto-populate billing forms and claims, eliminating the need for billing staff to manually enter this data. Bots can also check the status of claims across multiple payer websites and portals, then log the results, sparing staff from this tedious work.Automation is also being applied to completing new patient registration paperwork, filing claims with attachments, following up on rejected claims, sending dunning messages and statements, verifying patient benefits during appointments, and auditing EOBs to ensure accurate payment posting. The benefits of applying RPA to these and other routine billing functions include reduced administrative costs, improved accuracy, accelerated processes, and allowing billing teams to focus on more value-add interactions.According to Becker’s Health IT, over 70% of hospital finance leaders plan to invest in RPA, demonstrating the value automation brings to the revenue cycle. While no technology can entirely replace human oversight and judgement, purposefully leveraging RPA enables medical billing teams to operate at our highest capacity.Enhanced Patient CollectionsGiven today\u2019s higher deductibles and responsibility amounts owed by patients, collections are now a bigger revenue component.We Employ Best Practices to Boost Patient PaymentsEstimated collection amounts included in appointment remindersPatient balance portals with credit card processingAutomated payment plan managementInteractive voice response (IVR) reminders and automated collectionsExtended staff availability (evenings and weekends)Chatbots to answer common patient questionsThis improves point-of-service payments while reducing billing team workload.Increased Coding ReimbursementOur certified professional coders are meticulous in capturing the full breadth of services provided as documented in the medical record. This avoids leaving money on the table. We are experts at identifying opportunities for improved code selection and sequencing. Vendors manage audits and provide ongoing coder education. All of this works together to maximize legitimately earned reimbursement.Reduced Costs and HasslesProvides Additional Overhead Savings Compared to Managing In-houseNo need to train, manage and pay specialized billing staffNo software licensing fees and IT infrastructure costsAvoid claim denial write-offs reducing revenuePrevent billing compliance missteps leading to finesIncreased collections and revenue covers easily outsourcing costsNo weekend or night coverage needed from internal teamsThis converts the billing function into an affordable fixed expense versus major resource drain.Increased Focus on PatientsPerhaps most beneficial is freeing up your providers, nurses, administrators and staff from billing details so they can dedicate more time to delivering exceptional patient care.
