Health Services Associates, Inc. is on top of the RHC changes in the billing arena. We are one of the first to know and understand RHC billing changes relative to revenue codes, forms and submission requirements. As your RHC Medical Billing Service we can provide your clinic with the following detailed services:

• Develop efficient entry of demographic information
• Decrease rejections for incorrect Medicaid FFS and Medicaid HMO claims
• Electronic claims submission for hundreds of insurance companies
• Increase collections based on correct coding practices and RHC billing experience
• Develop accurate visit and payment billing reports that flow directly to the annual filed cost report

Why choose HSA for RHC Billing?
Most billing companies do not find out they are billing their Medicare and Medicaid RHC claims incorrectly until they begin pulling their visit and payment information to complete their annual cost report. By that time, its generally too late to correct all of the claims that have been processed incorrectly since the cost report is filed more than one year after a date of service has been billed and paid.

HSA is connected with multiple monthly and quarterly conference calls and political leaders dealing with policy and billing changes. We know when codes and forms change before they are even effective. With that kind of lead information, HSA bills claims with the correct codes and forms to ensure that your clinics visit count and payment data will match with your final cost report filing information. With HSA as your billing company, you will no longer need to count your own visits and payments for the cost report.

Our billing reports are geared to directly flow into your annual cost report with accuracy, saving you time and money. We can also increase your collections and collection time. We are connected electronically to hundreds of insurances across the United States which allows us to obtain the fastest cash flow turn around for our clients.
