If you are billing third-party payers, chances are you’ve run into a glitch or two. Creating better billing habits just might help you breathe easier.
Very few of us would say our processes cannot be improved. And judging from some of the NPs I’ve spoken to, and the questions I’ve received, the billing process is no exception.
In this episode of the NP Business Matters Podcast (#61), I’ll talk about some things you want to consider when you take a look at your own process.
We talk about:
- Revenue Cycle Management and what it means.
- Getting the correct information in every time.
- Why insurance verification is important
- Patient Facing Financial Policies
- Following up on claims
- Accounts Receivable
- The importance of cash flow
- and of course, more
This is an important topic for both insurance-based practices as well as cash-based practices.
What types of issues are you having, and what processes have you found helpful. Leave your comments below.
