FQHC Billing Services We Offer
While you bridge health disparities, we address the gap in your billing practices! Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) are critical in the healthcare system, serving the underserved. Unfortunately, due to their distinct scope and operations, they are also plagued by unique billing complexities.
If you are associated with an FQHC and looking for someone to take over your billing operations, look no further! At MediBillMD, we understand that your billing challenges are of a different caliber. Therefore, we customize our FQHC billing services to reduce your accounts receivable (AR) days to less than 30. With a proven track record and years of experience, our team effectively reviews coding processes, files accurate claims, monitors collections and manages your denials. Besides end-to-end FQHC RCM services, we also specialize in medical credentialing.
Common FQHC Billing & RCM Challenges
Are you making more billing mistakes due to high patient volumes? Or are you failing to meet patients’ demands due to delays in provider credentialing? Every healthcare organization faces billing problems. However, the billing botches are at a whole new level for people running an FQHC or a Rural Health Clinic (RHC).
From a complex payer mix to managing sliding fee scales, you have to satisfy each insurer while maintaining affordability for all patients. Credentialing issues create further disruptions in your FQHC medical billing process. While one-time issues are not problematic, recurring billing issues can affect your reputation. Understand common billing complications to prevent disruptions in your cash flow.
Multiple Payers Management
Due to high patient volumes, FQHCs deal with multiple insurance payers, including Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers. As a result, they spend more money on hiring experienced billing staff who can differentiate and follow varying guidelines and reimbursement rates.
Sliding Fee Scale Adjustments
A sliding fee scale creates more complications. FQHCs are required to adjust the cost of their services based on their patients’ financial condition. Hence, they have to apply varying discounts according to different levels of individual income. This includes income verification and manual adjustments, which lead to basic mistakes.
Credentialing Delays & Challenges
Credentialing is a time-consuming and frustrating process for many FQHC leaders. It takes several months for new providers to get credentialed. These credentialing or re-credentialing delays affect the FQHC RCM and billing workflow, disrupting reimbursements and resulting in claim denials.
Limited Resources
FQHCs and RHCs primarily depend on funding and donations to maintain their operations. They operate with limited resources most of the time, which means they lack competent staff to file accurate claims. This leads to an increased risk of billing errors, delayed claim submissions, and high claim denials.
