So how do we address your AR issues? We mainly focus on the key areas of concern by a simple 3 step strategy:

1. A/R Analysis: We have observed that on an average, almost 14% of all claims submitted to the payers get denied and need resubmission, appeal or write-off by providers. We close in on the high percentage of denied claims that are never re-filed as we believe, 50-70% of denied claims have a high chance of being recovered.

2. Payer Follow-up Policy: We insist on maintaining an aggressive follow-up with the insurance company’s on all accounts at any stage of the aging bucket.

3. Closure of claim: Closing the claims in the appropriate manner and getting the best results out of those is very important and we keep a keen focus on it.

Our denial management mechanism provides great importance on claim correction and resubmission activities and patient’s responsibilities.
