Is outsourced billing worth it for a one- or two-provider practice?

It depends on who does the work today. If billing sits with a front-desk employee between phone calls and check-in, claims get worked in whatever time is left over, and denials age quietly. If you have a dedicated, experienced biller who is not covering other duties, in-house often stays the better answer.

Do you charge a setup fee to start?

No setup fee for a standard billing engagement, and no long-term lock-in contract is required.

How does the percentage-of-collections model work for low volume?

You pay an agreed percentage of what is actually collected, so the cost moves with your volume instead of staying fixed through a slow month. At higher and steadier volume, a flat per-claim rate often works out cheaper — we will say so when that is the case.

Will a small account get a real person or a shared queue?

Your account is staffed by coders assigned to your specialty rather than a general queue, so the same people see your payers and your recurring denials week to week.

Can you take over existing accounts receivable?

Yes. Aged A/R is worked alongside new claims, oldest-at-risk first, so timely filing and appeal deadlines are not lost during the transition.

Small and solo practices

Solo providers and two-to-five provider groups get the same specialty coders, denial work and A/R recovery as a large group — with no setup fee, no lock-in contract, and a cost that moves with what actually gets collected.

What squeezes a small practice

Lower volume does notmean simpler billing.

01

Billing is somebody's second job

In a small practice, claim follow-up usually belongs to whoever is free. That is not a discipline problem; it is a staffing reality. Denials that need a call to the payer are the first thing to slip, and they are also the ones that expire.

02

One absence stops the cash flow

When a single person owns billing, a vacation, an illness or a resignation stops submissions entirely. Nothing about the clinical schedule changes, but the deposits stop two weeks later.

03

Fixed cost, variable volume

A salaried biller costs the same in a slow month as a busy one. A percentage-of-collections arrangement moves with your actual receipts, which is why it tends to suit lower and fluctuating volumes.

04

No bench for payer knowledge

Every payer has its own authorization, modifier and telehealth rules, and they change on the payer's schedule. One person cannot track them all across every plan you accept.

See all services How pricing works

Cost that tracks your volume

Most small practices start on a percentage of collections: you pay an agreed share of what is actually collected, so a slow month costs less than a busy one and a claim that never pays earns us nothing. Flat per-claim pricing usually wins once volume is high and steady — the pricing page compares both, with an estimator that is an illustration rather than a quote.

Every rate is quoted per practice after we look at your specialty, payer mix and claim volume. Nothing on this site is a fee schedule.

An honest read

Outsourcing is notautomatically the answer.

Keep billing in-house when

You already employ a dedicated, experienced biller who is not splitting time with the front desk.
Your payer mix is narrow and stable, and denials are rare and understood.
You want direct, same-room control over patient balance conversations.

Outsource when

Claim follow-up competes with patient-facing work and loses.
A/R keeps aging past 90 days and nobody has time to work it.
One person is a single point of failure for every dollar you collect.
