Physicians today are facing a multitude of challenges as they struggle with payers and other challenges invariably leading to reduced quality of healthcare and informal processes resulting in loss of revenue.

Industry Standards State

Majority of physicians leave over 24% of their revenue uncollected
Various medical practices report a gross collection rate of 60% or less


Uncollected revenue can adversely affect medical practice especially as experts state that-

“Better performing” medical practices collect more than 15% above practices in similar specialty

Many of the high performing practices profit margins are at least 30% higher than their peers


Why most practices are unable to collect maximized revenue?

  • Time constraints to regularly track - 1st time claims, denied claims and underpayments
  • Time restraints to manage a varied payer mix
  • Increased administrative burdens, staff challenges and poor revenue visibility
  • Healthcare reforms, industry changes and regulations
  • Increased patient demands results in less time to manage the billing process optimally


How some practices manage to collect more?

  • Increased staff costs which helps increase profitability
  • Investment in Technology and Facilities

These measures though costly help generate reports to identify the primary reason for denial and rejection of claims while the front office staff has enough time to sort issues such as verifying and obtaining correct patient demographics information. These practices hence procure higher patient satisfaction and revenues.

According to a MGMA survey 82% of successful practices conduct patient satisfaction survey and use the results to structure improved services, focusing on patient care and maximizing profitability.

Most practices bound by time & financial constraints prefer outsourcing to a medical billing specialist.
