Once you got a treatment and gave
all your necessary documents with front office. You got nothing to do with on
your medical bills.
But why it’s taking months to
receive a medical bill, in some cases it may take years to receive your medical
bill.
Medical back office process is not
an easy process, since it involved so many entities for a single bill. Once
doctor treatment over he will record the conversation and same conversation
will be sent to transcription from there coding & billing. With the technology
improvement doctor’s office can generate hundreds of claims in a day.
Once your claim generated you claim
will be sent to insurance office. Insurance office may take 3 day to 1 month to
process your claim. If everything goes well your claim will be accepted by
insurance in such case you may receive a bill with a month span.
If insurance company not accepted
your claim due to billing error or any document missing from you or from a doctor,
billing team have to rework. Most of the time insurance will give a clear
denial reason. Some time they may not. So doctor office need to call the
insurance get the correct reason and resubmit the claim to insurance.
Again same cycle will follow till
insurance company accept your claim, once insurance company accepted your bill.
Doctor’s billing team will work on your claim. And send the medical bill if you
have any leftover balance from insurance. Like co-pay, co insurance and
deductible or any non covered services according to your insurance plan.
