PMRNC:
Two sets of books is an Auditors wet dream.

IF you are a billing company and let's say your going to do a % of collections of insurance payments only and the practice will keep their patient payments (I've seen it done!) .. With you not Tracking patient payments, the practice is.. therefore 2 sets of books.

Another scenario:  Billing company hired to do Medicare billing only.   2 sets of books. Billing company tracking claims only of Medicare, practice doing rest.

Ask anyone who does audit's..this is their dream come true.. practice with two sets of books.

Initial applications of EHR were not very effective and many practitioners have merely adopted them to adhere to official norms. Therefore, no meaningful use of EHR has been evident in healthcare industry and medical billing productivity as well as efficiency has remained low.

Medical billing is actually done through stand-alone billing software, or Practice Management software.  EHRs are not used for medical billing - and so would not affect the productivity or efficiency of billing.
