starting a medical billing business
PMRNC:
I'm not sure of the terminology but doing follow-up can be derived from a few different types of reports. Also you keep mentioning modules and I would just like to point out that MOST of your PM software's (practice management) do at least the "basic" reports and you should not "need" a module unless you want more complex reporting, in which case some software's will have an "export" feature or like you mentioned an added "module". If you are looking for software you might want to look for one that includes everything w/out the need for modules. If you have a software and maybe you are seeking to strengthen it with a module, it might help us to help you in knowing which PM software you have.
Like Michelle mentioned there are also basic claim only softwares but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
Michele:
As Linda said, most programs come with the basic reporting capabilities. As far as ones that allow you to set a workflow where you can specify when claims should be checked, the only one I'm familiar with is Xena. I'm sure there are others, but I don't know which ones.

From what I see in most cases the patiens call the biller with questions and problems and not the provider.
PMRNC:
Well, that's not entirely true.. it depends on what you agree to with each provider. Some Billers do it all and whether they do or don't take patient inquiries..the doctor is always going to the biller wanting to know "where's the money?" ;D
If you intend on opening a billing company you have to realize there is no "out of the box" way to run it..you have to be flexible and competitive and at the same time not undercut yourself. What services you do or don't do will depend on what you plan to offer, each practice's needs and most importantly ..what you outline in each contract.

To everyone starting a new billing business. DON'T FORGET ERRORS AND OMISSIONS INSURANCE... IT COULD SAVE YOUR BUSINESS,,,,, ALSO FOR AN LLP OR LLC
