provider's question
melissa_2004:
Congratulations Erika! My first client was a psychiatrist as well and I am sooo grateful for that. I think it was a good way to get my feet wet and work out my workflow etc. There are usually just a few codes to bill and pretty straight forward. Onward and upward! ;D

thank you! i signed the contract with her yesterday. i wrote my 5 pages long contract on my own and i am very proud of it, it covers everything i need it to cover. later on i will definitely get an attorney to review it though. this client is only for cash recovery for the last 4 months, because i was just a few days late and she already signed a contract with someone else for the current billing. i am still grateful tho, because this way at least i see if i can even do it when working on the past claims, instead of jump right into it and have her rely on me to keep the flow of the money coming without delays. this way i can also take my time to do a little research and figure it all out. i tell you guys, i was getting my marketing plan ready, thinking of lunches, cold calls, advertising.. i got on craigslist last friday and sent out 5 emails responding to ads from local people looking for billers. got 2 responses, first, chiro, wouldnt do it because i had no previous experience with his specialty - but we still emailed back and forth about this like 3 times. the second, my psych, resulted in my first client:) i know im lucky but want to let you all know, that responding to ads is also a way..:) thank you all for your support!!

I have gotten all my providers from Craig's list, and they are PIA's, but its business. Ironically, they are chiro, psych, and mental health as well. Oh yeah 1 DME. must be something with that specialty
MBP:
lol, i have to admit, that my first impression from both of these providers was, how stingy they are! but, making a lot doesnt always mean spending a lot on paying for services you are getting i guess.. i would have never even thought of it, but oh well, craigslist did it for me:)

sometimes it comes from being "burned" by the inexperienced billing services. they don't want to put a lot of money into something and not get nothing out.
