I am a self employed speech pathologist. I contract facilities, but now want to provide private therapy to individuals. Most will be Medicare B outpts with supplemental insurance. Business details are not where my talents shine, so based on what I have read, I think I want to go through a clearinghouse. I am trying to learn about the process and need to find one that will meet my needs with low expense, since my business is so small. I will be the only clinician in my practice and my claims will probably never exceed 25 claims a week. I am overwhelmed. Any suggestions? Thanks.

We use EClaims and are VERY happy. They are also offering billing services now. I only use the clearinghouse service though. www.eclaims.com (308) 698-5400.

Not familiar with EClaims so I can't comment on that. We use Office Ally and it's virtually free. At the most it's $20 per month. Is there a charge for EClaims?

There is a monthly minimum charge, and .25 per paper claim. Their reports are great, and we know immediately if there's something wrong with a claim. There is no charge for rejected claims.

Thanks for sharing that pricing info. We like to know what else is out there. I was amazed when I first learned that there are clearinghouses out there that are free. I've used two now, and both were great. Although I am happier with Office Ally. Great reports and I love their website. We submit thousands of claims per month and at no cost!
