General Procedures
Once LMS has received the accounts placed, they are loaded into our database.
The first action taken is to request the status of each claim from the insurance carrier.
Upon receiving status, the account will be assigned to an individual insurance specialist.
Each insurance specialist will follow all procedures necessary to obtain payment on the account or to determine non-collectible.
Each insurance specialist will research all accounts for reason of non-payment.
Each insurance specialist will appeal all denials believed to be an error or not in the best interest of the hospital.
Each insurance specialist will attempt to negotiate an exception to properly denied claims for no authorization, time filing, ect.
Accounts determined non-collectible will be reported monthly to the hospital.
