Now you say that the doctors are " leaving money on the table "; I never responded to this before, because it is your opinion, that the doctors are idiots and hiring big companies; another stroke of genius from someone who uses free stuff.Let me be more specific. When you take money from the doctor, it is for something and it is not for your elaborate speaking ability. To point out, every claim that is submitted mus be electronically "scrubbed". Practice Mate does not do it. Automation is used everywhere in the society and our business is better for it.Second thing you must provide the doctors with reports, Practice Mate does not have any.Then the system must call to confirm the appointments, Practice Mate does not.I can go on and on. My website would have 40 pages of what we do and how we do it.My point is that you are taking good money from the doctor, give him the best money can buy otherwise you are cheating the doctors.
Dear Tallmanusa, In reply #10 you mentioned "I have hired two experienced billers part time, working from home, at 1% of the revenue collected by that biller" are you interested in another experienced worker?

I have to ask you again (which you never answered) Why the heck did you come to this forum? was it to insult? Because you certainly don't want or need our EXPERTISE.. Thankfully I'm WAY too good at what I do to be insulted.. almost..but you failed. I RUN one of the LARGEST communities of medical billers.. I'm not an association, don't want to be one but I do know you are flat out WRONG all the way around. By example, I know a billing company in Missouri who services 102 physician practices AND runs training center as well. Guess what she uses.. PRACTICE MATE. Guess how many pages her website has.. 5. I also do websites for the medical services industry.. MORE is not better. NO doctor, No office manager or staffer is going to sit and sift through 40 pages.. if you don't make your sell on the FIRST page, your done. So that is MOOT. SOFTWARE and WEBSITES do NOT make the PRACTICE MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY.. The expertise of the practice manager does! YOU have none. YOUR method is to HOPE and pray the offshore guys you hire do their job, never mind compliance.. HEY they don't have to be compliant.. it's on your neck. You avoid the other questions.. WHEN you hire these OFFSHORE billers or data entry processors.. DID YOU OUTLINE THE MANY TRIPS YOU WILL NEED TO TAKE OUT THERE TO INSURE COMPLIANCE?? I and the others here already know your response.YOU have insulted MY industry and I really think everyone here should just go on and ignore your insults. I know I will be.
The clearinghouse part (OA) is pretty good for a free clearinghouse. It is even better than some of the paid clearinghouses. As for Practice Mate, it is TERRIBLE
YES you can make a profit that way. After you have worked 4 X as hard, have 2X as many clients and worked 3 X as many hours as the other.
