Dental billing can be a difficult and challenging task for dental practices. Most dentists or practice managers make a choice to outsource their dental billing department to a professional dental billing company like All About Teeth LLC & More.
Here are the 7 Benefits of benefits of outsourcing Dental billing with Us
1: Outsourcing Dental Billing Allows More Focus on Patient Care
Spend more time focusing on what you do best—concentrating on patient satisfaction and providing quality care to your patients. This is specifically advantageous for smaller dental groups that cannot afford a large office staff. Dentists cannot be efficient at providing excellent patient care if they are bogged down by the financial side of running a practice.
2: Outsourcing Dental Billing Reduces Billing Errors
Our Experienced, professional billers can ensure that your claims are accurately submitted in a timely manner. The sole purpose of the dental billing company is to provide dental billing services. It is our responsibility to ensure that the staff we hire undergo thorough training and are equipped with the knowledge to properly submit the claims. Not only will this reduce the number of denied and rejected claims due to billing errors, but will also provide feedback to assist in maximizing reimbursements on future claims.
3: Outsourcing Dental Billing Saves Money
By outsourcing your dental billing, you could save thousands of dollars in annual salaries and benefits; office supplies and furniture; and purchasing, upgrading and maintaining billing software and computer equipment. We charge a flat rate per claim or a percentage of the reimbursement on each claim. Either way, it is less costly than what you would pay for a billing staff to provide the same exceptional services that are provided by outsourcing companies.
4: Outsourcing Dental Billing Improves Cash Flow
What happens when the staff in charge of billing calls out or goes on vacation? Sometimes claims have to wait until they come back to work in order to be submitted. Billing interruptions ultimately affect the timeliness of reimbursements and your cash flow. Using our service allows a continuous, steady flow of claims going out and cash coming in. A steady cash flow is important for your bottom line and the success of the practice.
5: Outsourcing Dental Billing Improves Patient Satisfaction
The ability to offer excellent customer service is what all dental professionals want to provide to their patients. However, it can be quite difficult to juggle the demands of treating patients and handling billing issues. The receptionist is responsible for greeting patients and answering the telephone. Reducing the burden placed on your front office staff by outsourcing can increase productivity, efficiency, and employee morale. It can also increase patient satisfaction by improving patient flow. Your patients will be happy because they will receive uninterrupted courteous and professional assistance for their billing questions or issues.
6: Outsourcing Dental Billing Ensures Billing Compliance
Health care is an ever-changing industry and insurance companies are partly to blame. One reason that makes dental billing a challenge is keeping up with the changes in Medicare, Medicaid, and third-party payers. It is a full-time job to make sure that the office is following the proper protocol required by each payer. Our staff stay up-to-date on the latest changes in regulations and requirements in order to maintain compliance and ensure the submission of clean claims.
7: Outsourcing Dental Billing Increases Revenue
With the reduction in overhead costs, the timely submission of claims and the increased reimbursements, a higher profit is another advantage outsourcing can provide to the practice. This allows the dental office the ability to provide the best quality services using the best technology and products and the best staff. Patients are becoming more knowledgeable about health care and are making choices based on which provider can offer them the best services. For this reason competition in dental care has grown quickly over time and to stay in business dental professionals must maintain a competitive advantage.
