Improvement and change can be difficult to incorporate into the daily operations of physician practices. Factors such as decreases in reimbursement (due to Medicare and Medicaid funding cuts), increases in the uninsured population, declines in margins, and pressures from managed care organizations demand process improvements in the revenue cycle.

With managed care contracting services that are tailored to meet the needs of your practice, we look at every aspect of your payer contracts for ways to improve your payer reimbursements.
