Strong practice management services

Managing a medical practice shouldn’t be tasked to one person. Our practice management services partner with you to take on work and drive efficiency.

How efficient practice management services can help

Regardless of a medical group’s size, practice management services deal with a tremendous variety of issues: administrative, legal, financial, technological and more.  

We believe that practice management shouldn’t – and simply can’t – fall on the shoulders of just one person. It takes a team, a luxury most medical practices can’t afford. So we help our clients achieve effective practice management by acting as a partner – our cloud-based services include expert teams that work on our clients’ behalf, relieving the strain of arduous administrative work, helping them get paid more, faster, and freeing up office staff for other responsibilities. 

Getting you paid more, faster 

One of the most important challenges physician practice management services face is making sure the practice gets paid in a timely manner for the care its providers deliver. The revenue must be there – regularly and dependably – to accomplish day-to-day operations.

94% of all athenahealth claims are resolved the first time. 

Here’s how we help medical practices work efficiently and collect more:

• Our patented Billing Rules Engine, a database of more than 40 million payer rules, flags any issues before a claim is submitted. 

• A team of athenahealth specialists follows up on claims and manages any denials. 

• With our Best in KLAS online ambulatory patient portal⁶, patients can pay online, as well as update information, request prescription refills and more, saving practices valuable time and effort. 

And to keep practices thriving through change, we proactively address requirements for ICD-10, Meaningful Use and other initiatives, all on our practices’ behalf. Our nimble cloud-based software is continuously updated, keeping every provider ahead of any payer or program change.
