How does AMS price for billing services and are there any start-up fees?
Applied Medical Systems
Our philosophy has always been to provide the highest quality services at competitive prices. Since we only use experienced and highly skilled personnel and our processes are performed entirely within the United States, we realize that we will not always be the cheapest vendor under consideration. However, we believe that the quality of the work is a testimony that our clients appreciate our value proposition. Additionally, our technologies are continuously updated based on changes in industry mandates such as Compliance, 5010, HIPAA, HITECH, CPT, and ICD. We provide our clients with these standard-setting, hands-on service levels and world-class technologies. AMS pricing is typically based on the percentage of net collections. If AMS doesn’t work hard for you, you don’t pay. When provided, the following parameters impact the computation of AMS pricing:
- Location of practice
- Specialty
- Financial mix
- The volume of patients, charges, and collections for the previous 12 months
- Documentation method
If providing the above information is too cumbersome, we can charge you on a flat per-claim basis or a standard percentage basis, specialty-specific. Beware of the one-size-fits-all percentage of net collections. Why should you subsidize your neighbors’ billing costs? We price specific to each provider.
There are no start-up costs. A charge for programming to build an HL7 interface from your EHR to our billing system may be involved. That will depend on your software vendor, and we will split that cost with you! Having an interface will expedite getting your billing information into our system.
