Why is outsourcing your dental billing important?

Money won't create success, the freedom to make it will.

You are probably asking yourself, “why should I outsource my billing department? I already have paid staff to complete these tasks.” While this is true, outsourcing should be considered an investment into your practice.

Let’s take a look at the questions below:

• Would you like more control over your billing processes?
• Does your front desk spend hours on the phone with insurance companies instead of shifting the focus to your patients?
• Are patients calling upset regarding insurance reimbursements and balances?
• Do you know if correct adjustments are being made to your patient’s accounts and you are collecting the correct amount for co-pays?
• Do you have a large amount of outstanding insurance claims?
• Has an insurance company denied a claim you thought should be paid?
• Are you using all applicable codes on your insurance claims for maximizing insurance reimbursement?
• Are the correct adjustments being made to patient accounts with primary and secondary insurance?
• Is your front office collecting the correct co-pays from your patients?
• Is your accounts receivable over 30 days more than 20%?

If you have answered yes to at least one of these questions, it might be time to consider outsourcing. Contact us for a free consultation!
