Coding and Billing

Pathology Billing Service

The AdvantEdge pathology billing service starts with a process custom-designed for your practice or lab. It focuses on the most efficient and rapid means to acquire all needed information, with quality and integrity checks built-in. Also a complete review and update of credentialing (provider enrollment) information is conducted. Compliance issues and risks are highlighted and resolved throughout the entire process.

New Call-to-action


Once implemented, the AdvantEdge pathology billing service sends accurate bills to each of your payers.  Your practice or lab sees daily financial and operational summaries. As claims are adjudicated, payments are posted and denials are automatically routed to the proper AdvantEdge expert for quick resolution. Secondary claims and patient balances are automatically billed. Outstanding balances with payers and patients are analyzed daily with each exception assigned to an accounts receivable expert.

An AdvantEdge client manager is available to your practice or lab at any time to review questions and as a practice management resource.

If your current pathology billing company isn’t exceeding your expectations, ask us to demonstrate why AdvantEdge is different from the competition. At AdvantEdge, we take pride in meeting each client’s specific needs, with consistently strong net collections and A/R performance. This “outsourced” billing reduces your fixed costs, while you retain control and visibility, including online “anytime, anywhere” access to your current financial performance.
