Healthcare Revenue Cycle Management

Revenue cycle management (RCM) is the financial process that healthcare facilities use to track patient care episodes from registration and appointment scheduling to the final payment of a balance.

As a part of Revenue cycle management (RCM) we manage claims processing, payment and revenue generation.

We entails using latest technology to keep track of the claims process at every point of its life, so that healthcare providers or medical billing companies aligned with us can follow the process and address any issues, allowing for a steady stream of revenue.

Our process includes keeping track of claims in the system, making sure payments are collected and addressing denied claims.
Our RCM process encompasses everything from determining patient insurance eligibility and collecting co-pays to properly coding claims using CPT and ICD-10 codes.

We strictly adhere to time management and efficiency as a key role in RCM.
