Exceptional Communication
Maintaining exceptional communication between your medical organization and the medical billing and coding company is vital. Questions, concerns, and problems must be addressed quickly. Therefore, weekly meetings, quick emails, or taking unexpected phone calls may be necessary. In the medical billing and coding industry, addressing issues immediately rather than letting them play out can avoid frustration while creating a solid, trustworthy relationship between your medical facility and the medical billing and coding company.
Clearly Outlining Responsibilities
For a partnership between your medical practice and a medical billing and coding company to succeed, distinguishing what each entity is responsible for is absolutely essential. A contract that clearly explains what is expected from both parties will help both the medical organization and medical billing and coding company function more efficiently.
HIPAA Compliance
Outsourcing medical billing and coding involves a medical practice and a medical billing and coding company to share sensitive patient information. It’s critical that your medical organization offers a safe and secure environment for exchanging this type of confidential information. To avoid severe consequences, HIPAA rules and regulations must be followed and all communication must be performed in a secure manner that protects patients.
Two Way Access to Patient Data and Records
Two way access to patient data and records is vital for a medical billing and coding company to effectively perform their job. As a medical provider, you must be willing to provide access to patient data and records so that a medical billing and coding company can process, correct, and appeal claims. A system that gives the medical practice the ability to check the status of claims is a great way to avoid confusion and lessen the amount of time spent on addressing questions and concerns.
