Find the best solution for maximizing your family medicine laboratory revenue
Ancillary lab RCM
For family medicine practices, especially smaller ones without an in-house lab, billing and collecting ancillary revenue from lab tests can significantly enhance financial stability. By managing lab test billing directly, practices can capture an additional revenue stream that would otherwise go to third-party labs.
Managed lab services
For family medicine practices that already have their own lab or are considering building one, managing lab testing and billing internally can significantly boost profitability and operational control. Owning a lab enables practices to directly bill for tests, capturing a higher percentage of revenue that would otherwise be lost.
Decision-tree based billing
Only bill for what’s profitable with our technology built exclusively for laboratory claims. Analyze and decide what tests will earn your practice more return and reduce revenue lost in billing for lower-return tests.
Patient pay & services
Patients are billed and receive customized statements that are easy to understand. Our team of U.S. based patient representatives answer questions and help collect payment faster.
Federal and payer compliant
Our team of reimbursement professionals adhere to all federal and payer-specific regulation. For over 25 years, we have provided ancillary lab RCM service to over 700 providers across the country.
