Did you Know?
The Medical Billing Services industry average denial rate for first submission claims can be as high as 20%
On average, up to 30% of a medical clinic's A/R is aged over 90 days, indicating potential issues with claim submissions or collections processes.
For medical clinics, bad debt can account for up to 5% of their total revenue. This includes unpaid patient balances and uncollectable insurance claims.
Studies have found that up to 80% of medical bills contain errors, which can lead to claim denials, delayed payments, and increased administrative costs.
Medical facilities spend up to 14.5% of their total revenue on billing and insurance-related activities, including staff salaries, claim processing, and collections.
By one estimate, it costs the practice $25 to work each claim that is rejected.

Hidden Costs of Carrying A Large A/R
Interest-Free Patient Balances:
Due to the Federal Truth and Lending Act regulations, most clinics avoid charging interest on patient balances. However, it’s essential to understand that carrying these balances in your A/R is similar to providing interest-free loans. You deliver services to patients, expecting to collect payments later.
Offering “free credit” comes with financial implications. It can tie up cash flow that could be better used for investing in your practice, paying off debts, or distributing profits to owners.
Inflation
Inflationary costs do not show up on financial statements thus, are often overlooked. The inflation rate in the United States was 6.5% in 2022. This means that a service rendered for $1,000 at the beginning of the year would only be worth $935 if the account took a year to collect.
Collecting account balances as timely as possible is incredibly important for a clinic’s bottom line.
