Finding Right Medical Billing Services in California for your Healthcare
Practice
Doctors and dentists were paid the highest in California in the first quarter of 2014. In 2013,
their average base pay was $204,764 and median pay was around $234,000. Are you
among the high performing medical practices in California? If not, partnering with a
reputed billing company can help to enhance revenue generation for your practice.
Practices Need to Streamline their Billing Operations
Physicians should have a method for sending out bills, following-up on non-responders and
receiving payments. A process needs to be in place for dealing with denials and other billing
issues that are affecting the revenue cycle.
Every ongoing process should be monitored so that the team can work together and
improve the workflow. Denials, successful payments, follow-ups should be tracked on a
regular basis in order to prioritize tasks.
Why Outsourcing is Beneficial?
Medical billing and coding is getting complex with every healthcare reform. Errors in claims
submission lead to loss of revenue. In some cases, billing mistakes also result in civil or
criminal prosecution. Considering the annual payment cuts, practices require effective
billing staff, latest technology and clear procedures to obtain payment for the rendered
services.
Billing companies can help practices streamline their revenue cycle and maximize
reimbursements. However, they need to choose the right billing partner for the required
outcomes. Whether you have a single physician practice or are a part of an independent
physicians association, you should evaluate these key criteria when choosing the right
medical billing service in California:
 Use of the latest technology
 Experience in the medical industry
 Pricing model
