Overview

It allows you to efficiently assess, plan, and improve practice performance while increasing revenue.

How you benefit:
Get paid, more and faster.
We help flag medical billing errors so you can correct them before they become problems. You’re getting paid more, because we let you know when there’s an inaccuracy on a claim – before it gets denied. And because so many claims are paid on initial submission, you get paid faster.Benefit from the most up-to-date payer intelligence.
Our Payer Performance Management team continuously researches and seeks out new insurance rules, builds them into our rules database, and makes them available to all clients, resulting in fewer claim denials. The payer team also tracks new government Pay-for-Performance (P4P) rules to help make sure you receive the incentive payments you’re eligible for. And while some vendors may send you software you need to update yourself every six months, we constantly update our software and rules database for you, giving you faster access to insurer coding changes – all free of charge.Have the most time-consuming work done for you.
We provide you with comprehensive business services, including claim submission, insurance package management, electronic eligibility verification, payment posting, claim follow-up, denial management, and more – all executed for you by athenahealth. You’ll spend less time on administrative tasks and more time doing what you want to do – focusing on your patients and the long-term vision for your practice.Have full visibility to make better decisions.
Our powerful web-based software empowers your current decisions and future planning with an intuitive Workflow Dashboard and comprehensive reporting functions.How we do it:
We provide a powerful web-based software platform called athenaNet®.
Our software makes patient processing and practice workflow more efficient, giving you complete visibility into your practice. Track and access information on any claim, from its starting point to its payment date. Create robust reports that are simple to run. Get instant data – from staff productivity to payer revenue – for every business decision you need to make.Everyone works to benefit everyone else through a real-time rules database.
One of the biggest issues we face in health care is that, although we share very common challenges, we tackle them alone. We’re isolated, and that makes us more likely to be frustrated or angry, held back by inefficiencies, and more likely to ultimately lose sight of our goals and our purpose.But it doesn’t have to be this way. athenahealth’s proprietary rules database houses a vast warehouse of crucial information about payers, procedures, diagnoses, and more. This real-time rules database brings together over 20,000 medical providers, creating a network that harnesses the power of their collective knowledge and makes the system better for everyone. When you submit a claim, payer requirements appear right on your screen, so that your claim can be fixed immediately. When we identify a denial pattern, we build a fix for that denial. Then the database delivers the fix to all our clients through athenaNet at no extra cost, and no one else has to experience that denial.
We assume your extra workload while adding valuable perspective and insight.
Our people are committed to service. You’ll have a designated support team to get you through implementation, answer your questions, and lead regular status meetings with your team. After you go live, your Account Management team will monitor your practice’s overall performance and offer valuable perspective and insight. We will periodically contact you to review your performance and to discuss opportunities for improvement, such as revenue optimization or cost reducing strategies.Resources
