Electronic Medical Claims Processing will convert paper to EDI
Electronic Medical Claims Processing
One of the most complicated and time consuming processes for today’s health care providers is HCFA and UB92 forms processing.
There are two solutions to consider. You can purchase, maintain and operate your own imaging system to process your paper claims, or you can
outsource the entire process. If staffing issues are a concern to you, outsourcing is your best option.
Advantages of Electronic Medical Claims Processing
Paper based claims to EDI conversion provides many benefits:
-
- Reduced staff
- Faster payments
- Elimination of paper HCFA and UB92 forms
- Instant search and retrieval capabilities.
- Full days receipts are processed every 24 hours
- ANSI EDI 837 format which mimics electronic claims submitted through a clearing house.
- Reduced costs
- Never a lost claim.
In order to process your own paper claims you will need to make a
substantial investment in an Electronic Medical Claims Processing software package. This package must include a scanner, forms processing software, search and retrieval software, integration,
training, and support. You will also need a dedicated individual to implement and operate the system on a day to day basis.
This investment will allow you to reap big savings on your labor costs, while significantly increasing the speed at
which you process paper claims. An average savings of 20 to 30 percent on claims processing is common. Your claims submitters will be very
happy because their claims will be getting processed much faster than before.

of paper claims can reduce your paper processing costs by 40 to 60 percent.
