Get Help With eClinicalWorks® RCM

Hundred of thousands of health care providers around the country use eClinicalWorks® for their electronic medical records. It is a great system that allows for simplified workflow, each communication between providers, and cloud-based storage. But for some of these providers, they need help eClinicalWorks® RCM, or revenue cycle management.

Revenue cycle management provides oversight and follow through with the revenue cycle. Unlike the typical retail model where goods are paid for on site, the medical model is much more complicated. A patient may pay a co-pay or a portion of the total cost of the services but for the most part, bills are sent off to insurance companies for the full payment and then payments are made depending on the patient’s health insurance.

There are so many places in the revenue cycle where medical practices can lose money if they don’t have proper revenue cycle management. For more complicated procedures or services, patients often require preauthorization to make sure the services are going to be paid for, at least in part, by the insurance company. While front desk staff might collect a co-pay at the time of service, the rest of the payment comes as a result of the billing process, both from insurance companies and bills sent to patients. This requires accurate billing completed by the biller, sometimes follow-up with insurance companies, and follow-up with patients if they have more to pay for the services.

All of these areas where money can be lost are watched carefully when you have revenue cycle management from EMR Billing Solutions. For more information about eClinicalWorks® RCM, contact us today at EMR Billing Solutions.
