MEDICAL BILLING REPORTS

There are countless reports available to our clients, anytime they want them.  At minimum, our clients receive Production and Aging Receivables reports. The Production report gives our clients a clear picture (in percentage and absolute numbers) of what was billed, adjusted and paid for any given period of time.  The Aging report (which can be generated in many flavors such as by patients, locations, rendering physicians, insurance carriers, etc.) shows traditional outstanding balances by period of time, typically 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 120 days.
