4 Things To Keep In Mind When Selecting An Urgent Care Billing Company

October 4, 2021Gables Medical BillingMedical Billing

Many urgent care billing companies are nowadays adopting the ‘new’ and effective way of billing. This new way involves outsourcing work to a medical billing company. Due to outsourcing the process of billing has become more cost-effective and efficient.

Specialized billing companies handle all the billing and financial processes of urgent care medical facilities and takes upon themselves the hassle of dealing with the billing process as well as revenue cycle management (RCM).

Outsourcing helps streamline and ease the process of revenue collection. An effective billing process betters the overall revenue generation along with enhancing the operations and reducing administrative overload. Due to the billing process being outsourced your staff is left with enough quality time to manage other operations at the urgent care center.

Urgent care medical centers as well as the healthcare industry is increasingly adopting medical billing outsourcing to enhance the in-house workflow. This has also helped ease and better the overall experience for the patients.

If figures are to be believed, by 2026 the global medical billing outsourcing market is set to grow at a CAGR of around 11%. It is quite clear from this data that it is better to outsource the billing process than to manage it in-house.

While it is clear that outsourcing your in-house billing process to an urgent care billing company helps, there are a number of things that you need to keep in mind while selecting one and deciding to go with that billing company. Listed below are 4 of the important ones that you will need to consider before you sign an agreement with a billing vendor:

  1. Billing Rates

It is best to take ample time to zero in on the billing company you will be working with. While lower rates may seem appealing and you want to hire a company offering lower rates, this is not always a good idea.

Do all your research. Try and get the backstory that is behind the company’s service rates. Once you have collected the rates from many companies, do a comparison. Check the pricing of competitors and then you can go for the one that suits your budget and fits your requirements.

  1. Terms Of Agreement

What you need to be looking for is a billing company that will structure its charges based on their actual billing and collection activities. Many billing companies take urgent care centers for a ride. They present attractive rates to centers looking to outsource their billing, but their actual rates are not the same as the ones they are promising.

Such companies artificially lower their rates. These low rates include only a few services and not the entire package that you many require. If a major portion of revenue is not from the sources your vendor collects from, then you are being overcharged for the billing services you are receiving.

  1. Length of Contract

Before signing the contract, decide what exactly your requirements are. Instead of opting for a multi-year contract, it is prudent to opt for a one-year starter contract. It is possible that the vendor may offer attractive rates to lure you into signing a multi-year contract, but it makes sense to try out their services for a year before signing for a multi-year contract. If the performance fits your expectations you can invest in a costlier long-term contract.

  1. Data Ownership

This one is extremely critical. Before you sign on the contract ensure that you will remain the owner of your data. This is because when your contract nears completion, you should be in a position to outsource to another vendor or billing company.  But, if your data is not owned by you, your vendor can hold your data hostage which will make it difficult for you to switch to another billing service provider.
