Four Keys to Efficient Medical Billing
Every medical provider struggles one time or another with medical billing. It's either too costly, or it doesn't work well. Whether you are a solo-practice or a large multi-location counseling center, we believe there are four keys to success.
Billing team
Use a billing team, rather than a billing person - to provide a more
stable and flexible solution - at a lower average cost. |
central database
Put the database on a central computer, that is easily accessible by
each team member. Allow easy communication between
the billing team members. |
KNOWLEDGE BASE
Load the system with lots of information about the insurance companies and their policies. Better information means more claims get paid. Read More |
POWERFUL SOFTWARE
Make sure the software is powerful - to handle complex tasks quickly and easily. Read More |
What this means to your practice
Summit-Edge provides a billing "platform" that can be utilized by any size practice. The central idea is to build a billing team that start's with the provider's own staff. You complete the team by selecting Billing Specialists from our Resource Center. The centralized database allows the team to work together seamlessly - as efficiently as if everyone is working in the same office.
Large counseling centers may fill the team from its own ranks - in which case the Summit-Edge platform allows that team to work together efficiently - even from multiple locations. It's much less expensive to use the Summit-Edge platform, than building an expensive computer network. The software is loaded with time-saving features - and never requires the user to do a workaround. Large counseling centers can cut overhead and save lots of time.
Small group practices, short on in-house expertise, can build a strong billing team by selecting Billing Specialists from the Summit-Edge Resource Center. Many affordable Billing Specialists are ready to help. If you use your Receptionist for entering intakes and sessions, your billing costs will be comparable to that of a large counseling center.
Solo-practices can cut billing service fees - by working with a Billing Specialist from the Summit-Edge Resource Center. You can cut fees by as much as one-half, if you enter your own intakes and sessions. Our solo-practices tell us it's quicker to enter this information, than sending it to the billing service - so, it's an easy way to save a lot of money.
