Services We Provide
Based on our portfolio of AR Management services, our clients obtain all the necessary activities for the management and recovery of all unpaid amounts.
For the treatment of claims, we are responsible for submitting them to insurance companies and tracking the filed claims. Our team follows up on claims to ensure that they are filed on time and also follows them up in the reimbursement process.
Denials have a large effect on your revenue cycle. Our team investigates the reasons for the denial, resolves it, and submits the claims again to get paid. To avoid any future denials we handle coding errors, incomplete documentation, and no medical necessity.
We handle all balances for patients, implement proper billing to the patients, and also follow up on the payments promptly. Our team uses proper approaches to contact patients, and we provide accessible payment plans.
When payments are received, we make it our responsibility to make sure that these payments are posted correctly and to the right account. The transparency of our system regarding your practice’s due balances enables you to make smarter decisions.
The account receivable aging shows all the accounts, their outstanding balances, and which accounts need to be addressed quickly. That enables you to concentrate on the most crucial outstanding balances and work towards getting your payments instantly.

AR Management Procedure
Our procedure for approaching and handling AR management is quite comprehensive, streamlined, and effective.
Initial Claim Submission
- Our first process begins by filing claims to insurance companies immediately after providing the service. Our system helps follow the development of each claim and guarantees that there will be no claims that are not taken into consideration.
Monitoring Claims Progress
- We ensure our team frequently tracks the status of claims and engages with insurance companies to ensure that claims are processed efficiently. We respond to any delay or problem with appropriate solutions to ensure the revenue cycle remains smooth.
Denial Resolution
- When our claims are rejected, we determine the cause and correct the situation promptly. It means resubmitting claims with correct documentation or dealing with coding problems. The focus is to clear any denial on time so that AR days are minimal.
Patient Follow-up
- Patients receive bills for their unpaid balances and we remind them to pay the amounts that are due. They can choose different forms of payments and we also provide payment installments options for patients with especially large due balances.
Regular AR Aging Review
- Our team constantly reviews your AR aging reports to determine accounts that are overdue. The accounts which are old are usually preferred for collections and efforts are made to collect money as soon as possible.
Final Payment Posting
- Receipts are promptly credited to the right patient account or insurance company once payment has been made. This involves keeping your records updated and detailed so you can have a complete understanding of your financial status at any time.
