“With all of the current changes in the healthcare industry, we needed a partner that would ensure that all of our claims would be processed correctly without disruption to cash flow,” said Todd Blum, Chief Executive Officer at Ear, Nose and Throat Associates of South Florida. “We were impressed with how well Navicure handled the 5010 transition, and are certain they will lead us successfully through all of these pending changes. In addition, we are confident that their clearinghouse solution will help reduce our days in accounts receivable and improve our entire revenue cycle.”
“When we started our search for a new clearinghouse, one of our top requirements was that we be able to easily track the status of every claim,” said Roy Strong, Chief Executive Officer at Ortho Montana. “Navicure’s reporting functionality enables us to do this. Furthermore, we can identify the most common rejection and denial reasons so that we can prevent them from happening in the future. With the help of Navicure’s solution and dedicated client services team, we believe we’ll see a significant decrease in our A/R days.”
