- Let’s discuss the step-by-step process of family practitioner medical billing and find out how healthcare providers can improve them.
- Step 1 – Scheduling patients for treatment and executing insurance eligibility verification.
- Step 2 – Offering medical aid to patients and documenting the same for further billing process.
- Step 3 – Translating offered medical services to relevant CPT, ICD-10, and E/M Codes.
- Step 4 – Claim filing, entering all details and codes for claim creation.
- Step 5 – Submission of claims to insurance providers for further claim processing.
- Step 6 – Claim processing by insurance providers and payment posting after receiving revenue.
- Step 7 – Revenue recovery with proper denial resolution for denied claims and follow-up on delayed payments.
- Step 8 – Collecting payment balances such as copays and deductibles from patients.
- All these steps require accuracy, efficiency, and consistency to ensure smooth revenue cycle management. Healthcare providers may be able to execute all these steps, but they lack time, skills and resources to ensure maximum reimbursement. That’s where the role of medical billing companies changes everything for healthcare providers. Companies like AlterMed RCM simplify medical billing for family practitioners, help them achieve precision and maximize revenue.
