Outsourcing Patient Statements

Is your practice good about sending out patient statements on a regular basis? Do you have a process in place that ensures your patient accounts receivable is under control? If patient statements are a struggle for your practice, you might consider using an outside service.

You still have to review patient balances and upload a file, but then TriZetto takes over from there, saving you tons of time from mundane tasks like stuffing envelopes and running postage.
