Verify your Patients’ Insurance Benefits for Smoother Florida Medical Billing
Verify your Patients’ Insurance Benefits for Smoother Florida Medical Billing
It happens daily in Florida medical billing – physicians spend time and resources performing valuable services for which they’ll never get paid. Many times, this happens simply because an office employee failed to properly verify that a patient’s insurance benefits were current and that the services requested were covered by the patient’s insurance policy. This inevitably leads to a denial for payment to a medical practice by the patient’s insurance company. It’s a common occurrence that can mean thousands of dollars of lost revenue for a Florida medical practice of any size.
Here at Professional Claims Link (PCL), we believe that a physician should receive every penny to which he or she is entitled once medical services are rendered. That’s why we take a proactive and comprehensive approach to Florida medical billing. A major feature of this approach is our verification of benefits service. Before your patient enters your office, PCL’s experienced Florida medical billing specialists can help verify the following:
• Insurance eligibility effective dates • Patient coinsurance, copay and deductible amounts • Plan benefits as they pertain to your specialty and place of service • Exclusionary rider information
Our pre-verification of your patient’s insurance benefits will help save your staff hours of time and your practice thousands of dollars by ensuring your Florida medical billing practices are efficient and effective right from the start. Many practices fail to properly verify patients’ insurance benefits simply because their staff is strapped for time. This opens the floodgate for deception or simply confusion that can cost your practice dearly. Some patients will present an expired healthcare insurance card either fraudulently or simply by mistake. Others may not realize the difference between certain insurance policies. For instance, patients who have switched from Medicare to a Medicare Advantage Plan may still present their government-provided Medicare card, which could result in your staff failing to collect a copay or secured an appropriate authorization, and billing the wrong insurance company.
When you trust PCL with your Florida medical billing, we act as your advocate assuring that the patients you see are properly insured prior to entering your office, then following the transaction all the way through to final, full payment. Florida medical billing gets more and more complex all the time. Let our highly trained and experienced specialists handle your Florida medical billing, minimizing your staff’s time and frustration spent on paperwork and boosting your practice’s revenues.
