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.
If you are considering sending out your paper
claims for processing, we are the company for the job.
Outsourcing the processing of paper claims can reduce your
paper processing costs by 40 to 60 percent.
