Anesthesiology Billing Service

Our anesthesia billing service starts with a billing process custom-fit to your practice, focusing on the most efficient and quick means to acquire all needed information, with quality and integrity checks built-in. At the same time, a complete review and update of credentialing (provider enrollment) information is conducted. Compliance issues and risks are highlighted and resolved throughout the process.

Accurate bills are sent to each of your payors within thirty to ninety days. As claims are adjudicated, payments are posted and denials are automatically routed to the proper AdvantEdge anesthesia billing expert for quick resolution. Secondary claims and patient balances are automatically billed. Outstanding balances with payors and patients are analyzed daily with each exception assigned to an accounts receivable expert. And your practice has access to daily financial and operational summaries of these functions.An AdvantEdge client manager works with your practice throughout implementation and after; he or she is available to your practice at any time to review questions and as a practice management resource.

If your current anesthesiology billing service isn’t exceeding your expectations, ask us to demonstrate why AdvantEdge is different. At AdvantEdge, we take pride in meeting each client’s specific needs, with consistently strong net collections and A/R performance. This “outsourced” (i.e. your work is done by our employees on your behalf) billing reduces your fixed costs, while you retain control and visibility, including online “anytime, anywhere” access to your current financial performance.
