Credit Balance Resolution Services
One of the most significant risks in the healthcare revenue cycle is credit balance — the excess money received compared to the medical services rendered. Over-payments from payers and excessive patient payments are the primary causes, and the provider must refund such amounts to the appropriate party.
Why Credit Balances Are a Compliance Risk
Failure to refund credit balances promptly can result in litigation and significant fines. An excessive credit balance can also inflate the view of a practice's financial health, leading to erroneous financial decisions.
Our Refund Resolution Process
We analyze each patient account, identify and validate credit balances, and initiate refund checks to zero out the balance — for both patient and payer credit balances.
