Welcome to ParaMed Billing Solutions
Welcome to ParaMed Billing Solutions ("ParaMed," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our medical billing, credentialing, and revenue cycle management services (the "Services").
By engaging our Services or using our website, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Services.
Important: These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you (the "Client") and ParaMed Billing Solutions. We encourage you to read them carefully and contact us with any questions before engaging our services.
Scope of Services
ParaMed provides professional administrative and consultative services to healthcare providers, facilities, and hospitals across the United States. Our core service offerings include:
- Medical Billing and Claims Processing — end-to-end claim submission, tracking, and payment posting across all major payers
- Provider Credentialing and Enrollment — CAQH management, payer enrollment, and re-credentialing for all provider types

The specific services provided to your practice are defined in your individual Service Agreement. These Terms apply to all services listed above unless otherwise specified in writing.
Client Responsibilities
To ensure the accuracy, compliance, and efficiency of our Services, the Client agrees to fulfill the following responsibilities throughout the engagement:
- Provide accurate, complete, and timely encounter data and patient information for every billable service
- Maintain all necessary clinical documentation required to support billed claims, including medical necessity records, progress notes, and orders
- Ensure all providers are legally licensed and authorized to perform the services being billed in the applicable state
- Notify ParaMed immediately of any changes in practice ownership, provider status, payer contracts, fee schedules, or operational structure
- Respond to requests for additional information or documentation within the timeframes specified to avoid claim filing deadline risk
- Designate a primary point of contact who can authorize billing decisions and respond to compliance inquiries
Important: Delays in providing required documentation may result in missed timely filing deadlines. ParaMed is not liable for claim losses resulting from untimely information from the Client.
Fees & Payment
ParaMed's fee structure is transparent and outlined in detail in your individual Service Agreement. The following provisions govern all payment terms:
Service Fees
Fees are outlined in the specific Service Agreement executed between ParaMed and the Client. We operate primarily on a percentage-of-collections model.
Billing Cycles
Unless otherwise stated, invoices are issued monthly and are due upon receipt. Custom billing cycles may be established in the Service Agreement.
Late Payments
ParaMed reserves the right to suspend Services for accounts that are more than thirty (30) days past due without prejudice to any other remedies.
No Setup Fees
ParaMed does not charge upfront setup fees. You pay only when we successfully collect revenue on your behalf.
All fee disputes must be raised in writing within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Undisputed portions of invoices remain due regardless of any fee dispute in progress.
Compliance & HIPAA
ParaMed is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data security and regulatory compliance across all services and all states in which we operate.
- Business Associate Agreement (BAA): We execute a BAA with every Client to ensure the protection of Protected Health Information (PHI) in accordance with HIPAA and HITECH regulations
- Data Security: All PHI is transmitted and stored using 256-bit AES encryption on SOC 2 Type II certified infrastructure with role-based access controls
- Clinical Responsibility: While ParaMed provides coding and billing guidance, the final responsibility for medical necessity determination and clinical documentation rests solely with the Client's licensed clinical staff
- OIG Compliance: ParaMed performs monthly OIG exclusion list screening for all staff assigned to client accounts
- Audit Support: In the event of a payer or government audit, ParaMed will provide available billing records and documentation to support the Client's defense
Zero Data Breaches: ParaMed has maintained an unblemished data security record since inception. All staff receive annual HIPAA training as a condition of employment.
Term & Termination
The duration and termination provisions of the Services are designed to protect both parties and ensure a smooth transition of billing responsibilities.
- Duration: These Terms remain in effect for the duration of any active Service Agreement between the Client and ParaMed
- Termination Notice: Either party may terminate the partnership according to the notice period specified in the individual Service Agreement — typically 30, 60, or 90 days written notice
- Post-Termination Obligations: Upon termination, ParaMed will provide final billing reports, outstanding AR status, and transition data as outlined in the Service Agreement, provided all outstanding balances are paid in full
- Immediate Termination: ParaMed reserves the right to terminate immediately in the event of Client fraud, material misrepresentation, or serious compliance violations
Transition Support: ParaMed provides a 30-day transition support period at no additional charge to ensure uninterrupted billing continuity during any change of billing service.
Limitation of Liability
ParaMed provides billing and administrative services with the highest level of professional diligence. However, certain outcomes are beyond our control and are expressly excluded from our liability:
- Denials or loss of revenue resulting from inaccurate, incomplete, or untimely data provided by the Client
- Clinical necessity disputes where payer decisions are based on clinical documentation outside ParaMed's control
- Changes in payer policies, fee schedules, Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs), or regulatory requirements that affect reimbursement
- Revenue loss arising from the Client's failure to maintain proper licensure, credentialing, or facility certification
- Indirect, consequential, or punitive damages of any kind arising from the use of our services
Liability Cap: Our total aggregate liability to any Client is limited to the total fees paid by that Client to ParaMed during the three (3) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
