FAQs on Outsourcing Medical Claims

Outsource your medical accounts receivables management to India and transform your pending medical claims to cash. The cash flow thus generated plays a significant role in achieving a healthy revenue stream every month. This is a critical factor as the business budgeting and planning is based on the cash flow generated by the accounts receivables team.

Why do outstanding medical claims require follow-up?

Besides collecting claims, identifying uncollected claims and transforming them into cash is an important responsibility of the accounts receivables team. If problem accounts are not dealt with adequate resolution measures, their status will slide to uncollectable.

How can you help me achieve better collections?

Our medical claims processing services will lower your fixed costs by up to 40%. Besides minimizing denials, we also file claims and follow-up with the insurer until recovery of your dues. Read further to gain a deep insight into our hospital accounting services.

How can you help me increase my revenues?

In addition, we have implemented process improvement best practices. On receiving the claims denial report from the payer which specifies the cause of denial, we modify our processes and employee training programs accordingly to prevent such medical claims denials in future. When a payer denies payment or makes an underpayment, we register an appeal with the requisite rectifications.

What is your process for registering appeals?

Our appeals registration process is as follows:

  • We track our medical claims recovery performance by measuring both the denial rate and the turnaround time end-to-end—from claims filing to payments recovery.
  • We have implemented a system to minimize and track the appeals submission time. We have also created standard appeals letter templates that are easily customizable with the patient data and denial cause rectification information.
  • We do not register appeals for very low dollar claims. Hence we have established minimum thresholds of $10 for the first appeal and $20 for the subsequent one.
  • If claims are habitually down-coded by an insurance company, we appeal for the originally submitted code and attach supporting documents.
  • If an insurance company consistently denies payment for a specific code, we request physicians to personally meet and discuss the issue with the insurance company while carry supporting documents, instead of registering appeals repeatedly.
  • Before signing a contractual agreement with any payer, we urge physicians to gain complete clarity on the claims appeal process. This helps us determine our strategy for tackling denials and to draw up plans for further action.
  • Further action includes steps such as ascertaining whether mediation is permitted, grievance hearings held, physician peer review requests accepted in case of denials for medical necessity etc.

Though appeal strategies are not always successful, it is observed that at least 50% appeals do get approved. Such returns are well worth the effort and time invested in pursuing appeals, especially if the appeals process is executed efficiently by the accounts receivables team.
