Comments on: Should You Outsource Your Medical Billing? http://blog.softwareadvice.com/articles/medical/when-should-you-outsource-your-medical-billing-1032610/ Software Advice Articles, News & Best Practices Guides Thu, 17 May 2012 19:12:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Siva http://blog.softwareadvice.com/articles/medical/when-should-you-outsource-your-medical-billing-1032610/#comment-4704 Siva Tue, 16 Nov 2010 07:45:39 +0000 http://www.softwareadvice.com/articles/?p=3388#comment-4704 Chris, We have seen that outsourcing of billing benefits the doctors due to reasons such as better and rigorous processes being followed (the in house billing can be sloppy at times) that clearly results in increased collections. I have not seen such a simple article before that shows the benefit of outsourcing in "black & white". If you consider some of the additional long term benefits including being able to report PQRI (sending quality reports more smoothly with outsourced billing), cleaner data being available (in case of any audits/legal issues that may result), we have also seen doctors spending some hours on in house billing - just asking questions/follow up etc - say a couple of hours every week, the balance tilts even more towards outsourcing. Regards, Siva Chris,

However, the choice still remains with the organizations taking many other parameters into considerations other than cost alone, which is the sole purpose here. Informative though! Thanks.
