Practical methods to improve fee collections.
Abstract
A medical practice's financial policies should be frankly discussed with patients and explained at the initial visit. At that time, health insurance coverage should also be discussed. This candid conversation not only opens the door to further communication regarding a once-sensitive subject but also facilitates collection of fees--especially important when high-priced procedures are contemplated. The author also discusses third-party payers (including Medicare) and the pros and cons of prepaid health plans.
