Most medical billing companies charge between 8% and 12% of the amount collected, to their physician clients. We charge our clients, an average of 7 to 8% of the actual amount collected, after it is collected. That is substantial direct savings and cash-flow improvement to our physician clients, day on day.

Denial management is crucial because it directly impacts the financial health of healthcare providers. When claims are denied, the revenue cycle is delayed.Rapid care has the right team and technology to minimize the frequency of denials, correct the issues that cause denials, and recover as much of the denied amount as possible. We review denials, correct any errors, and resubmit the claim or appeal the payer’s decision. We perform Root Cause Analysis to identify common reasons for denials and help to prevent them in the future.

We are very comfortable at handling this critical phase of billing since we rigorously follow-up with insurance companies and patients right till the last cent, using legally prepared appeals (as per Medicare advice with respect to “appealing” denials rather than “re-submitting” them). As a side note, our appeals will always include and quote well-researched past “legal” precedents because of our collaboration with one of the better known attorney firms that specialize in this field.
