Today’s physician’s practices have witnessed a continual change from the practice of office management to the practice of managing information. With this change, there have been many complications with managed care and government regulations requiring more organizational skills. Many physician practices are requesting Service Bureaus/Billing Services to handle the insurance billing, electronic claims processing, patient billing, follow up, collections, etc.

We have found that many of our physician clients have similar difficulties keeping current with sending statements and insurance claims as well as their other responsibilities. This leaves little or no time for the necessary follow-up. Midwest’s Service Bureau allows practices the ability to practice medicine and lets us improve their efficiency, increase their profitability and decrease their headaches by assuming the back office functions.

Clients may decide to handle some of the process in their office such as posting charges and/or entering patient information, and have Midwest post payments, print statements, and perform insurance submittals and follow up, etc. We are flexible enough to offer all or limited services in order to assist in the best possible manner.

Service Bureau/Billing Service functions include:

• Electronic Billing
• Insurance Filing
• Third Party Administration
• Accounts Receivable Management and Collection
