RE: Clearinghouses

(1/1)

DavidZ:
If you would have a small home billing company with 2-3 clients at start would you bill direct or go with the clearing house?
Which would be the easier route?
Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Michele:
That would depend on your software and its capabilities.  For example, in order for me to go direct with my current software I had to buy a separate electronic program which costs a little bit of money.  If I only had a couple of clients it wouldn't be worth it.  But with the number of clients I have, it's more than worth it.  There are free clearing houses out there, like Availity, which makes sense for someone starting out, if your software is compatible.  If you have a way to go direct that is not too costly, that would be great.

Hope that helps!

Michele

DavidZ:
