Denial Management System
A major issue for Medical practices has been denied medical claims. Even though the work was completed; the payer, through some technicality, refuses to pay. Manual denial management is a daunting task. Figuring out why a claim is being denied by a payer is a costly and time-consuming venture. According to the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) It costs $25 to $30 to manage the average denial. To counter this, Human Medical Billing follows the following protocol to minimize denials and improve the collections of a practice.
