According to A-One Biz Solutions, a medical billing solutions provider, “Day by day, medical claims are being processed in a large volume, and a lot of work goes into the end-to-end process of collecting claims. Medical claims management allows your organization to augment your processing framework and reduces overall expenses.”

Benefits you can get from medical claims processing outsourcing

Aside from cutting cost and speeding up billing procedures, healthcare organizations get a lot more when they outsource their medical claims processing tasks to a third party.

In his eBook Is Your Claims Processing Destined for Success in the Face of Government-Driven Change?, Michael H. Smith, Senior Director of Healthcare Business Development of SOURCECORP, listed the following as some of the important benefits of medical claims processing outsourcing:

Streamlined and efficient claims processing

Medical claims processing outsourcing provides doctors and hospitals a direct access to expertise and qualified resources that eliminate backlogs and tighten turnaround times. Outsourcing frees them from the tedious process of complex healthcare claim management and enables them to focus fulltime on patient care.

Effective and accurate handling even of high volume claims and issues in workflow

Outsourcing also enables hospitals’ ability to handle high volume transactions. By being able to efficiently balance surges in processing requirements, healthcare payers can accelerate the time for processing claims, have resources to resolve issues and improve cash flow. As a result, they can mitigate problems and ensure core needs are met.

Automatic electronic workflow tools

Technology that improves claims processing is essential for success. Outsourcing delivers defined processes and workflow tools that enable healthcare organizations to quickly process and manage claims with greater accuracy.

Improved patient satisfaction

Outsourcing service providers have the expertise and people that are trained in performing medical claims processing. Medical outfits that outsource are able to take advantage of this expertise and improve their customer service by processing claims faster and more accurately. Outsourcing also provides better visibility into the claims process, enabling hospitals to have more productive interactions with patients, resulting in greater patient satisfaction.
