Outsourcing to MBC:

Our years of experience in handling intricacies of radiation therapy billing and coding procedures translates into a very sophisticated level of understanding of the diseases involved in radiation therapy versus the insurance procedures applicable to them.
We have been able to bring down claim denial rates for care providers across all the state of the US through accurate handling of data and rigorous follow-ups done in a methodical manner. Our quality consciousness is responsible for reduction in claim denials. Both during and after preparation of claims, we put them through various cycles of quality checks to make sure that they are completely error free when submitted.
Our service models are flexible, so that you can choose a model that perfectly fits your needs and setup. We offer two types of models:
-
RCM consulting

Outsourcing
Our consulting model involves a thorough study of your revenue management system to help identify areas of revenue leakage, outdated software applications and training needs. By helping you address these areas our RCM service will ensure a smooth revenue management process capable of handling the dynamics of radiation therapy insurance requirements and reduced rejected claims.
However, if you don’t have an in-house billing and coding team, you can ship out your entire billing and coding responsibilities to MBC.

CE also involves random quality checks as part of audits.
