Accurate Orthopedic Medical Billing Services
Since 1994, we have performed medical billing services for orthopedic group practices. Our orthopedic medical billing specialists help ensure claims are prepared accurately, submitted promptly and our comprehensive follow up team ensures your claims are paid accurately and correctly.
What we do
Orthopedic Billing
STAT Medical Consulting provides the essential billing services orthopedic practices need throughout the entire revenue cycle. STAT will work with your team to make sure intake information has correct insurance information and prior authorization requirements before services are billed. STAT can assist your staff in these efforts in reducing avoidable delays and denials.
Claim submission
Claims are scrubbed for accuracy and checked for common errors before submission. This prevents claims from being rejected and monitored so clean claims get sent to the correct payers.
Denial management
When a claim is denied, we review the reason timely, correct eligible claims and follow up with the payer instead of allowing recoverable revenue to remain unresolved. Our team is proactive and will appeal claims for additional revenue that is due back to the practice. Our appeal process is automated and trackable.
Accounts receivable follow-up
We follow up on all outstanding claims and aging balances to improve collections and protect your practice's cash flow and income.
