How To be a very Successful Practice and be successful in Insurance Billing here are few things you should know as a practice owner :

  1. Know what’s needed legally for your practice to function properly without any interruptions.
  2. Don’t Hesitate to spend on hiring skilled labor Same time make sure they are really skilled doing the job (Don’t trust their Profile or Curriculum Vitae, always have a long one on one interview and understand them, Also look into their previous experience information on how long they have stayed with their previous employer that will help you to judge how long they can stay with you)
  3. Have a proper money management plan of your own don’t buy branded things or branded services
  4. Don’t Spend on multiple software’s thinking that will help your practice growth and don’t listen to what the software company’s sales person tells you ” Trust me” They are really good at selling and they will make you believe that you need their software. Always hear it from your friends or try yourself and see if its user friendly and do you really need it.
  5. Have multiple teams and be very organized in who is taking care of what and who is accountable for what. List out all the items from Patient Phone call for fixing appointment till Patient Walks out after treatment and reschedule follow-ups and assign it to respective team members. using this list even If you have a small practice your staffs will know what all they need to focus if incase they are new.
  6. Always Appreciate and provide incentives to your employees not as an salary or wages but like a coupon or a cash voucher or a team outing this will keep them energetic they wont think of quitting.
  7. Make sure to be contract with all insurance this will allow you to get EFT payments and the money flow will be fast.
  8. Dealing with Insurance Billing is always complex so follow the steps below
