Confirmation of Benefits
This approach guarantees that the essential procedures are covered by insurance. Our team of experts continues to enhance your process via quality and accuracy as the key to raising your clean claim rate.
Requests for Referrals
Patients in various HMO plans are required to obtain a referral from a PCP prior to any medical services and we ensure that this is obtained and recorded.
Authorizations
The most important component is to have a valid authorization number on file; failing to do so might mean the difference between a compensated claim and a write-off. Our staff ensures that your authorizations are on file and approved.

Denial Management
Posting
This isn't just about checks and balances; our staffs are trained to go above and beyond. They contribute significantly to a manual denial management process ensuring the denials from EOBs/ERAs received are being addressed within 24-48hrs of receipt.
Payment Integrity
We also identify discrepancies between the contracted rates and actual allowable given in the EOB/ERA. Such discrepancies are reported and appealed as underpayment along with the contract.
Reconciliation
Payments received are reconciled with the bank statement and clearing house ensuring all payments received are being posted accurately.
