What Sets Us Apart
In our experience, most medical billing services take the low hanging fruit, which oftentimes comprises 75%-85% of collectable reimbursement. The other 15%-25% of collections is made up of claims that are paid incorrectly on the first submission, denied in some form or another, or passed on to the patient through deductibles and co-insurance.
GAS ensures this additional 15%-25% of collectable revenue is captured by first ensuring each and every chargeable service is captured. Secondly, we utilize our in-house certified coders to properly code both diagnosis and procedure for all of your cases. Thirdly, once the claim is processed we do not simply accept the insurance company’s payment as correct, but reconcile the insurer’s payment with your contract. We continue working with the insurer and/or the patient until the claim is paid correctly and fully. Our billing software is anesthesia specific and allows us to use the latest technology to maximize our collection efforts.
