01 — Services

The full revenue cycle,
run end to end.

One team owns the work from intake to the reconciled deposit, so nothing sits between handoffs.

Claim build & submission

Monthly CMS-1500 / 837P claims built from your EMR, with service lines, modifiers, place of service and diagnosis pointers checked before anything leaves.

837P · CMS-1500

Eligibility & plan verification

Coverage checks before each cycle catch plan switches between managed care organizations, so claims go to the right payer the first time.

270 / 271

Denial management

Every denial is categorized by CARC/RARC code, corrected at the root cause and resubmitted. Patterns are reported back so they stop recurring.

CARC · RARC · 277CA

Payment posting & reconciliation

Remittance is matched line by line to billed services. Paid, partially paid and still-pending are always kept separate. No guesswork.

835 · ERA

A/R follow-up

Aging claims are worked on a schedule, with every payer response documented. Each open balance has a named next step and a date.

A/R aging · follow-up log

Practice workspace

A private portal for your team: status by patient and month, payment evidence, and the follow-up behind every open item.

Secure portal · per-practice

02 — Claim lifecycle

Every claim follows
the same disciplined path.

Each stage has a check before the next one starts. When something is rejected, it goes back to the stage that caused it, not to the end of a queue.

03 — Platform & security

Engineered for
protected health information.

Our client platform runs on AWS under a signed Business Associate Agreement. Patient data never appears on a public page, and each practice sees only its own records.

Practice browser connects over TLS to an API gateway, which checks a Cognito sign-in with MFA before reaching application functions and encrypted storage.

  • Business Associate AgreementHosting runs under a Business Associate Agreement with AWS. Each client practice signs a BAA with us before any data is shared.
  • Invitation-only, MFA-enforced accessNo public sign-up. Every account is provisioned by us and requires multi-factor sign-in.
  • Practice isolationAuthorization is scoped per practice and covered by automated isolation tests on every release.
  • Encryption and audit trailData is encrypted at rest and in transit. Sign-ins and record changes are written to an audit log.
  • Short-lived sessionsAccess tokens expire in minutes and can be revoked, which limits the exposure of any lost device.
