Quick Answer

What Does a Medical Billing Company Do?

A medical billing company handles the end-to-end revenue cycle for healthcare practices: eligibility verification, charge entry, coding, claim scrubbing and submission, payment posting, denial management, A/R follow-up, patient collections, and KPI reporting. Pricing is normally a percentage of collections; MedPrecision charges 7.0% for solo practices and 6.0% for groups, with no setup fees, per-claim charges, or software fees. Performance is judged against the freely published AAFP targets — adjusted collection rate 95% at minimum, days in A/R below 50 with 30 to 40 preferable, and a 5% to 10% denial rate.

  • 100% AAPC/AHIMA-certified billing and coding staff
  • Month-to-month engagement with specialty-aligned billing teams
  • 40+ specialty-matched team assignments (gastro, cardio, ortho, derm, ASC)
  • Month-to-month contracts after 90-day onboarding, no long-term lock-ins

Choosing a billing partner is a multi-year financial decision, and the honest starting point is that most of the benchmark numbers quoted in this market cannot be checked. MGMA's practice medians sit inside licensed DataDive products that cannot be republished, and HFMA's MAP Keys publish metric definitions and equations without setting a single target value. What *is* freely published is the guidance a practice can actually hold a vendor to: AAFP puts the adjusted collection rate at "95%, at minimum" against a 95% to 99% average, days in A/R "below 50 days at minimum; however, 30 to 40 days is preferable", and a denial rate of "5% to 10%" as the industry average with below 5% more desirable. MedPrecision is an HBMA-member medical billing company with 100% AAPC- or AHIMA-certified billing and coding staff, month-to-month contracts after a 90-day onboarding, and percentage-of-collections pricing that aligns compensation with the practice's collected revenue rather than activity metrics. The team supports 40+ specialties with assigned specialty-matched staff, monthly KPI reporting, quarterly strategic reviews, and direct integration with major EHR/PM systems including Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, AdvancedMD, NextGen, Kareo, and DrChrono.

The State of Medical Billing Company in 2026

Benchmark data in this market is far harder to verify than its confident presentation suggests. The two figures quoted most often to practice owners -- a 98% clean claim rate and a 97-99% net collection rate -- trace not to the professional societies they are attributed to but to a single vendor-sponsored article, which in turn attributes its own clean-claim figure to a trade publication. HFMA's MAP Keys publish metric definitions and equations, not target values. MGMA's medians sit inside licensed DataDive products. AAFP publishes the one freely checkable target set -- adjusted collection rate "95%, at minimum" against a 95% to 99% average, days in A/R "below 50 days at minimum; however, 30 to 40 days is preferable", and a "5% to 10%" denial rate -- and publishes no clean claim rate figure at all, which means no vendor can honestly cite one as an industry standard. On first-pass performance, MGMA reported a single-specialty aggregate rate of 8% for claims denied on first submission in its 2023 DataDive Practice Operations data set, and noted this was the same rate documented in 2019 -- four years of clearinghouse tooling moved the industry number by nothing. The practical test when comparing billing companies is simple: ask which of a vendor's quoted numbers has a URL behind it.

Common Medical Billing Company Mistakes to Avoid

warning

Choosing a billing company based primarily on the lowest percentage fee

Low-fee billing companies often cut corners on follow-up, appeals, and claim scrubbing to maintain margins. The savings on fees are far outweighed by the revenue lost from lower collection rates, higher denial rates, and less aggressive A/R management.

check_circle

Evaluate billing companies on net collection rate improvement, denial rate reduction, and total revenue impact rather than fee percentage alone. A company charging 6% that collects 97% will generate far more revenue than one charging 4% that collects 91%.

warning

Not verifying specialty-specific expertise before signing a contract

Billing companies that lack experience in your specialty will under-code specialty-specific procedures, miss billing opportunities unique to your field, and apply incorrect modifier or bundling rules, resulting in preventable denials and lost revenue.

check_circle

Request client references from practices in your exact specialty, ask about the certifications and experience of the specific team that will be assigned to your account, and verify their knowledge of specialty-specific billing rules during the evaluation process.

warning

Failing to establish performance benchmarks and reporting requirements upfront

Without defined KPIs and regular reporting requirements, there is no objective basis for evaluating the billing company's performance. Issues can persist for months before they become apparent in your bank deposits.

check_circle

Define specific performance targets (net collection rate, days in A/R, denial rate, charge lag) before the engagement begins, and require monthly reporting against these benchmarks with explanation for any negative variances.

warning

Not maintaining oversight of the outsourced billing operation

Outsourcing billing does not mean abdicating financial management. Practices that do not review monthly reports, question variances, or participate in strategy discussions often experience gradual performance decline that goes unnoticed.

check_circle

Designate a practice administrator or physician champion to review monthly reports, attend quarterly strategy sessions, and serve as the primary liaison with the billing company. Active oversight keeps performance accountable.

warning

Switching billing companies without a structured transition plan

Unstructured transitions create revenue gaps during the handoff period, and institutional knowledge about your practice's specific payer quirks and billing workflows is lost. Most practices experience a 10-15% revenue dip during poorly managed transitions.

check_circle

Require a detailed transition plan with parallel billing periods, defined data migration milestones, and revenue protection guarantees before any billing company change.

Our Medical Billing Company Methodology

01

Practice Revenue Intelligence Assessment

Before any billing work begins, we conduct a deep-dive analysis of your current financial performance, identifying every revenue opportunity and process weakness. This assessment covers coding accuracy, denial patterns, payer contract performance, charge capture completeness, and patient collection rates to establish a clear baseline and improvement roadmap.

02

Specialty-Matched Team Assignment

Your practice is assigned a team selected specifically for their experience with your specialty. A dermatology practice gets billers who understand Mohs surgery coding. A cardiology group gets staff trained on cardiac catheterization billing. This specialty matching drives higher accuracy and fewer denials from day one.

03

Performance-Based Accountability

We set specific, measurable KPI targets during onboarding and report against them monthly. Our percentage-based compensation model means we earn more only when you collect more, creating genuine alignment between our performance and your revenue outcomes.

04

Continuous Payer Intelligence

Our team monitors payer policy changes, fee schedule updates, and billing rule modifications across every payer in your market. When a payer changes its requirements, your billing workflow is updated before the change takes effect rather than after you start receiving denials.

05

Quarterly Strategic Reviews

Beyond monthly operational reporting, we conduct quarterly strategic reviews that analyze long-term trends, identify emerging revenue opportunities, evaluate payer contract performance, and recommend strategic actions to grow your practice's financial performance year over year.

Selecting and Evaluating a Billing Service

“The difference between a billing vendor and a billing service is accountability. A vendor submits your claims and sends you a report. A partner takes ownership of your revenue performance and is measured by your financial outcomes, not their own activity metrics.”

What makes MedPrecision different from other medical billing companies?

Three structural differences separate MedPrecision from typical billing vendors. First, specialty matching: assigned billers and coders are pre-qualified for the practice's specialty (cardiology cath lab coding, dermatology Mohs, ASC facility billing, gastroenterology endoscopy with colon polyp removal modifiers, mental health 90837 vs. 90834 distinctions) rather than rotated through a generic queue. Second, certification: 100% of billing and coding staff hold active AAPC (CPC, CPB) or AHIMA (CCS, CCS-P) certifications, with continuing education tracked against each credential's own CEU requirement. Third, contract structure: month-to-month after a 90-day onboarding window with percentage-of-collections pricing that ties MedPrecision's revenue directly to the practice's collected revenue rather than activity metrics or claim volume.

Do you require long-term contracts?

No. The standard MedPrecision contract is month-to-month after an initial 90-day onboarding period during which the team is integrated, baseline KPIs are measured, and the parallel billing handoff is completed. The 90-day window is the realistic minimum to see measurable improvement: aged A/R recovery work, denial pattern analysis, and payer rule library buildout all require 60-90 days to produce data the practice can evaluate. After that window, the practice can terminate with 30-60 days' notice for any reason. The economic argument for month-to-month is straightforward: a long-term lock-in removes the vendor's reason to keep improving after the easy wins are banked. Removing the lock-in forces continuous performance accountability. Under a month-to-month model, retention is earned through measurable KPI delivery rather than imposed through contract terms. Onboarding fees, transition costs, and software-integration charges are quoted up front in the engagement letter rather than buried in long-term contract language.

How do you handle multiple specialties within a group practice?

Multi-specialty groups are assigned specialty-segmented billing teams under unified reporting. Each specialty within the group gets billers and coders with direct experience in that specialty's coding rules, payer-specific bundling edits, and denial patterns — a multi-specialty group with cardiology, primary care, and an ASC will have three specialty-aligned biller pods coordinating under a single account manager. This matters because specialty-specific rules don't generalize: cardiology bundles cardiac catheterization codes (93452-93462) with imaging modifier requirements that don't apply to primary care; ASC facility billing under the CMS-ASC fee schedule uses status indicator G2 (designated procedures) and J1 (multiple-service packaging) that physician billers don't routinely encounter; pediatrics requires age-specific E/M code 99381-99395 selection plus immunization administration code logic. Reporting is consolidated at the group level (consolidated KPI dashboards, A/R aging by specialty, denial rates per provider) so the practice administrator sees one set of numbers, not three.

What results can we expect in the first 90 days?

First-90-day results follow a predictable pattern based on what is fixable inside that window. Days 1-30 typically focus on stabilization and aged A/R cleanup: assigning the specialty-matched team, integrating with the practice management system (Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, AdvancedMD, NextGen, Kareo), running the baseline revenue assessment, and prioritizing the aged A/R for filing-deadline rescue. Days 31-60 focus on denial pattern analysis and payer rule library buildout: every CARC/RARC code is mapped, recurring denials are routed to upstream prevention (coding, registration, or authorization fixes), and clean-claim rates climb. Days 61-90 focus on appeal recovery and KPI lock-in: appeals from the aged A/R bucket land overturned dollars, charge capture gaps are closed via daily appointment-to-charge reconciliation, and monthly KPIs stabilize. The full revenue cycle improvement curve runs 6 months as systemic issues compound and preventive measures take hold.
