Getting claim software from a payer
Hello! I am in the works of starting my own billing business in Arkansas. How do I request an insurance agency’s claim software – they keep asking me for my provider number or my practice name? Obviously I’m not a doctor and therefore have neither of these things. Is there a way around this?
Thank you so much
Kecia,
I haven’t attempted to use the medical claim software provided by any of the insurance carriers before. If you don’t have a provider yet, they may not let you download software or sign up for a login ID to use their portal. It’s similar with a clearinghouse – you need specific provider info to sign up.
If you need basic software just to get started you might try Office Ally. They are nothing fancy but they do provide a good basic free program called Practice Mate – and a free clearinghouse service.
It provides the basics like patient data base, electronic claims, statements, etc. I’ve read good things about them – especially the clearinghouse – on one of the medical billing forum’s.
Hope this helps – Thanks!
Per-provider software pricing
I’m in the process of starting my own medical billing company and had a question regarding the software fees. I’m an experienced ER nurse and plan to start billing for freestanding ERs.
My question is, when the software fees state $xxx amount “per provider,” does that mean for each physician working for the ER, or for each ER facility?
Some FSERs can have 10-20 physicians working for them, but some of the physicians may work one to two shifts per month. Sounds like that can get pretty expensive if the fee is for each doc…
– Carlos
Yes – typically the price per provider is the cost for each physician regardless of the location. So for your example with 10 to 20 physicians this could be very expensive.
If the software provider doesn’t list group or “per user” prices, I would encourage you to contact them if you really like their software. As you have probably learned from researching software pricing, the fees very quite a bit and are structured differently.
Otherwise if you have several physicians, you would want to explore “per seat” or “per user” pricing instead of per physician. This would make your cost much more reasonable.
Thanks for your question.
