What do you do when a prospective client wants you to do their billing, but will not agree to a flat monthly fee? I've run into this on more than one occasion. I won't do percentage billing, so my alternative plan is to charge by the claim (in other words by each HCFA submitted) then add on fees for each additional service, such as posting of payments, direct billing of customers w/ outstanding balances etc. Not a perfect system, I'll admit, but rather than lose the business to a competitor, this arrangement has allowed me to add 3 more clients that I normally wouldn't have. Does this sound reasonable? What do you folks do when a prospective client won't agree to a flat monthly fee?
Also-
If any of you have a Linkedin account, please beware of a person named Daniel Lopez (I doubt that's his name!) He is a front guy for a company in India who is trying to obtain subcontracting agreements with American medical billing companies. His emails were getting pretty pushy before I designated his email as spam.
