Claim Submission and Clearing-House Rejections
We resort to electronic transmissions of all claims, as paper transfers are more risky and rather outdated. What sets Clarus apart is the fact that we follow claims until they reach the payer and continue our follow-up until the payer acknowledges the receipt of claims. In case of clearing-house rejections, we keep track of it on a daily basis and work on transmitting it instantaneously.
Payment Posting
The perfect blend of advanced technology, cost effective solutions and qualified billing professionals, we can get all payments posted in the billing system precisely. Clarus takes payment posting a step ahead by religiously following-through the process and accounting for denied claims. Our team is well-versed in posting 835 Electronic remittance advice (ERA).
Accounts Receivable Management and Analysis
Our perfect billing and coding system make A/R calling non-existent. But we believe in being prepared for any situation and extend our support to A/R, ensuring that our clients get paid promptly at a much lower cost.
Our AR team works effectively that all the 30+ accounts are touched within 30 biz days and gets forwarded to the next level. 0-30 aging bucket accounts are touched within 20 – 30 biz days depending on the insurance carrier.
Correspondence and Appeals
At Clarus, we are well-prepared to deal with medical billing disputes. In case of such a scenario, we diligently resubmit any claim that is not received by the payer or needs to be corrected and resubmitted. All submissions are confirmed with the insurance company to prevent any denials for untimely filing.
Based upon the information gathered by the calling support team, our team will take necessary action on the unpaid claim to correct and resubmit it. This may include re-billing, re-coding, or sending appeal letters.
Provider Credentialing and Enrollment
Our team of professional credentialing experts assures that all relevant information required for credentialing is obtained from the health practitioner. Each insurance carrier has a specific format to be followed and we customize the information to meet it. After submission, Clarus saves the information in a data base for future use and follow-up the enrollment process with the insurance carriers. Clarus makes sure to follow up with the insurance company in order for the providers to get enrolled.
