AT&C is granted remote access into your ASC billing systems and will utilize your in-house software to complete all aspects of the revenue cycle. This is one of the ways AT&C reduces overhead and keeps your costs low.
Billing, Coding, and Claim Submissions
AT&C experts access your ASC operational systems and reconcile operative reports with the centers schedule. Reports are then coded by certified coders specialized in the nuances of ASC coding. Within 48 hours, your cases have been coded and filed electronically with the appropriate payer. Questions about operative reports are rapidly resolved with physicians and/or clinical staff so that billing is not delayed. Our coders and other billing experts are also vigilant of possible compliance risks and provide regular feedback on potential issues. Claims are followed up daily for clearinghouse denials and are worked rapidly to ensure a clean submission.
Payment Processing and Reconciliation
Payment posting is completed within 48 hours of receipt and denials for “no payment” or “underpayments” are
researched immediately. EFT/ERA processing is monitored daily and processed timely as are secondary claims. A reconciliation report is provided to the facility daily to ensure that the operational system balances with the centers accounting software.
