The first promise that all US medical billing companies make to their clients (Healthcare Providers and Facilities) is to offer value-added medical billing and coding services and increase the efficiency and revenue. However, most of them fail to keep up with their potentials due to booming healthcare reforms, new standards, and technology & software updates, which have extremely changed the working conditions of the healthcare industry. To help practices run their businesses efficiently, US medical coding companies can partner with offshore vendors that come with all the loaded goods. In this article, let’s learn how offshore companies provide a helping hand to their clients:
Save on Operational Expenditures: The first main benefit of outsourcing medical coding services to offshore companies is they can save on operational costs that include employing skilled professionals, training existing staff, buying new software and technology and more. With a pool of trained resources and updated IT infrastructure, offshore medical coding companies can serve you better while saving unwanted expenses.
Hold Better Authority: It is a myth that when medical billing companies outsource, then they lose the authority to their partners. No, that’s not true! In fact, they will have better control over the medical billing and coding services. The offshore company will act as a back-end office and provide all the necessary goods to support US billing companies who will, in turn, help Providers run their practices efficiently.
Ensure Compliance in Medical Coding Services: Most medical billing companies fear that their highly-secured patient data might get hacked while outsourcing. To ensure safety, partner with a HIPAA-compliant offshore company. Also, the US healthcare industry has been introducing so many new compliance policies, standards and guidelines every now and then. A reputed offshore vendor will stay up to date with these new changes. So, choose such a company to stay atop in the game.
Improve Cashflow: One of the main reasons for interrupted cash flow is medical billing errors. If the in-house medical billing team doesn’t tend to these errors and re-submit the claims in the specified time, then there will be a huge revenue loss. However, with an offshore partner, medical coding companies can improve cash flow, as it has skilled professionals who analyze error patterns and correct them immediately. By re-filing the corrected claims in a timely manner, the offshore vendors improve cash flow and ensure there is no AR pile-up.
ICD-10 Implementation: The new coding techniques have made medical billing and coding services highly complicated. To handle them, intense training is required, which involves costs. Instead of investing in labor and training, medical billing companies can add a pool of trained resources from offshore companies.
