Providers subscribing to our service receive FreeMedicalBilling.Net software free over the Internet.Additional features are as follows:

 

Claim Follow Up System

Outstanding medical claims are displayed 24x7x365 over the Internet in traditional 30-60-90 day formats.Claims are also sliced and diced in several other formats to facilitate maximum collection by the billing staff.For instance, all claims outstanding for thirty days are segregated in one report so the staff can concentrate on contacting the carrier about these claims without being distracted by other categories of outstanding claims.The Problem Claim report displays any electronically filed claim that did not make it to the carrier allowing the billing staff to fix and resend these claims immediately.There are 19 distinct follow up reports that provide a �no excuse� environment to aid and promote quick resolution of outstanding claims.

 

Claim Follow Up Online Documentation

Each time a claim is �touched� by the billing staff, a note can be logged into the claim providing documentation and history as the claim cycles through the collection process.Explanation of Benefit (�EOB�) documents and other pertinent information can be scanned and attached to the claim as supporting evidence of collection activities.This kind of claim history provides an instant record of collection activity for practice management to review at any time.
