: clearinghouse
: carnilent June 10, 2009, 05:17:17 PM

Hi Everyone;

Does anyone know which clearinghouse is most reasonable?

Medisoft charges $90 per month per Dr.  (includes electronic claims, ERA, and eligibility)


Is there anything cheaper?


thanks for your help,

Almost every clearinghouse deals with Medisoft, You shouldn't have a problem shopping around. $90 a month per doctor is ludicrous.. are you getting anything else with that? Is that for unlimited claims? Benefit eligibility?

yes, it comes with unlimited claims, eligibility, and ERA.

That is better then mine...mine is $75.00 per doctor and I get 25 claims free after that it is $1.00 per claim.  (Oh and if I enter a cash patient to record what procedures were performed that counts as a claim too).  It is web based and has a lot of great functions and is easy for a newbie like me to use...but it does cost.

Well before you start looking it might be a good idea to get together some reports and see what your volume is, if you have a high volume than $90 per doctor might not be bad, especially if you are getting the other benefits, with other clearinghouses you may not get a per doctor charge but rather per transaction and it could cost you more.
