In-house billing

In the setup of in-house, staff of the clinic or physician office are responsible for all aspects of Revenue Cycle Management, Billing and Practice Management. They submit claims to a clearinghouse or directly to insurances for reimbursement, set charges, collect patient fees and manage the accounts receivable.
If existing staff capable to handle the RCM & medical billing process, providers and administrators appreciate having hands-on control of financial operations through in-house billing. When there is infrastructure in place, it’s worthwhile to just refine existing billing processes to generate the best return on investment. The accessibility of your in-house billing department is a major advantage, since all it takes to observe the billing process and handle any issue is a walk across the office floor. There are now many web-based practice management systems. Updates to software are made automatically. Maintaining patient confidentiality is one of the most important issues for providers. In-house billing allows for strict control over patient accounts.
