Cardiology Billing - Hospitalist Billing
Are your Days in A/R above 60? Are collections running below what you think they should be? Is it hard (and expensive) for your billing staff to use your current billing system? Is your hospital staff inexperienced in physician billing? Are IT support costs a significant overhead item? If you have any of these symptoms, AHS can help.
Efficient and effective cardiology billing
AHS billing technology links directly to your hospital systems. Dictated cardiology reports can be translated directly to the proper coding; where exceptions occur, our certified coders do the coding. AHS also provides handheld devices (e.g., Palm) to capture charge data on-site. Where charge data is on superbills, AHS workflow optimization means data is entered faster, with fewer errors. And workflow optimization speeds the entire billing cycle.
You get:
- Service to billing intervals measured in hours, not days or weeks.
- Increased collections from a streamlined cardiology billing process.
- Reduced Days in A/R—typically 7 to 14 days.
- Lower billing costs.
