Our Current Service Portfolio

Excellence MBS provides the following critical services, among others, to provide an efficient revenue cycle solution to our clients.

Eligibility Verification

Eligibility Verification

Benefits Verification

Benefits Verification

Prior to service being rendered by the provider, we verify patient benefits and deductible balances in the patient’s account.

Authorization

Authorization

We initiate and aggressively follow-up on pre-authorizations with payers wherever required to ensure that clients can deliver their services to patients without fear of non-payment.

Billing

Billing

Our work edits and rejection management team can help reduce rejections and improve claims submission efficiency. We utilize the functionality in practice management systems to review the claim data and check data integrity.

We recognize and rectify errors prior to submitting the claims to payers. We help you reduce claim denials and lower your turnaround time on accounts receivable.

Payment Posting

Payment Posting

Insurance payments are posted to patient accounts from the EOB. All payments received will be posted within 24 hrs.

For payers who do not have Electronic Remittance (ERA), our team manually posts the insurance payments into the patient’s account matching the respective allowed amount for each charge.

To ensure that all payments received are posted, we compare bank deposits with the total payment posted in the PMS.

If the patient has co-insurance, the remaining unpaid charges will be filed to the secondary insurance as per the coordination of benefits.

Any deductibles, copays, out-of-pocket, and other patient responsibility stated by the insurance will be billed to the patient when the statements are generated. Before generating statements, we ensure that the patient account balance is correct and they are not billed for balances for which they are not liable. Patients’ statements are generated on a monthly basis.

Denials Management

Denials Management

We offers complete denial management services that focus on reducing denials, identifying trends, and taking pro-active measures to reduce future denials. We provide an end-to-end denial management process aimed at reducing denials by up to 25-50%.

We pinpoint the reimbursement issues, analyze denied claims, take corrective actions to correct deficiencies, and take effective action for successful appeals and re-file claims. We have the expertise and experience to provide complete denial management services for all basis of denials and ensure regulatory compliance across the revenue cycle.

Account Receivables Management

Account Receivables Management

Our Accounts Receivable team compares expected and actual collections, understands the cause for discrepancies, and takes corrective measures to recover the difference.

Excellence MBS' systematic and regulated processes during each phase of the revenue cycle allow our AR team to keep Days in AR to below 25.

An initial analysis of old outstanding receivables will be performed whenever a new client joins Excellence MBS, and corrective action will be taken to recover as much revenue as possible from claims filed prior to the client joining Excellence MBS.

Unpaid claims are processed using a prioritization based method, with high value claims and claims approaching the insurance timely filing limits given top priority.

Any underpayment in the contracted amount or reimbursement rate of the insurance company will also be flagged and corrective action undertaken.

Demographics Verification

Demographics Verification

We can enter new patient demographics into the EMR and PMS system with checkpoints that verify all data is complete and accurate.

Claims Management

Claims Management

All claims will be generated and filed either electronically or via paper as per payer standards. The acknowledgement of receipt of the claims by the insurer is checked to prevent any loss of claims.

Any potential errors resulting from the transmission either at the gateway or at the insurance clearinghouse will be resolved and resent within 24 hours barring clinical discrepancies.
