The Client: A fast growing radiology practice management group in NJ.

Challenge Analysis: BOSS was initially approached by the group to take care of charge and demographic entry. The company decided to offshore because of the following reasons:

  • Employee turnover
  • Claims not submitted on time
  • Incorrect posting and refunds
  • Improper denial handling and outstanding AR days
  • Steep decrease in cash flow and inverse increase on claims outstanding.
  • The Client wanted to hand over the billing side to us in 2 months if he gets satisfied with our ability on the AR Management (we did a good job and the owner of the clinic handed over the billing part as promised).
  • We had to use a new software namely Telnet & other Hospital system access for carrying out the operations. We got cross-trained over phone on the practice management software.

The Project:

  • To provide full billing service..
  • To handle average of 700 claims every month
