Revenue Problems Illinois Practices Face

If any of these are draining your collections, you are leaving real money on the table every month.

HealthChoice MCO Denials Stacking Up

Illinois has six different Medicaid MCOs each with their own rules. One missed authorization or wrong modifier and the claim sits unpaid for 60+ days.

A/R Days Climbing Past 45

Slow collections kill cash flow. Every extra day in A/R is borrowed money you should already have in your operating account.

Coding Errors Costing You 8 to 12%

Undercoding and missed modifiers silently bleed revenue every visit. Most practices never catch it because nobody is auditing.

Biller Turnover Stalls Collections

When your internal biller leaves, claims sit untouched for weeks. Knowledge walks out the door and revenue goes with it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what Illinois providers ask before they sign with us.

How long does it take to onboard our Illinois practice?
Most practices are fully live within 14 to 21 days. We complete the audit, build the workflow, integrate with your PM or EHR system, train our team on your specialty, and start submitting claims. Credentialing with Illinois payers and IMPACT enrollment runs in parallel and typically takes 30 to 60 days.
Do you handle HealthChoice Illinois and all Medicaid MCOs including CountyCare?
Yes. We bill all HealthChoice Illinois MCOs: Aetna Better Health, Blue Cross Community Health Plans, Meridian, Molina Healthcare, and YouthCare. We also handle CountyCare Health Plan for Cook County members. Our team tracks every MCO authorization rule and timely filing window so claims do not get rejected for state specific issues.
What is your pricing structure?
We charge a transparent percentage of net collections. No setup fees, no minimum monthly charges, no per claim hidden costs. You only pay when we collect for you. Exact rate depends on specialty, claim volume, and scope of services. Pricing is locked in your service agreement.
Will you work with our existing PM or EHR system?
Yes. We work inside your existing PM or EHR including Athena, Kareo, AdvancedMD, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, DrChrono, Practice Fusion, Epic, and most others. You stay on the system your team already knows. We adapt to you, not the other way around.
Do you understand Illinois prompt payment laws?
Yes. Illinois requires payers to pay clean electronic claims within 30 days and paper claims within 45 days. We track aging on every claim against these statutory deadlines and file complaints with the Illinois Department of Insurance when payers violate prompt pay rules. Most practices never enforce these laws and lose interest payments they are legally owed.
What happens to our outstanding aged AR during the transition?
We work your existing aged AR alongside your fresh claims from day one. Most practices recover an additional 8 to 15 percent of what they thought was lost. We chase down stalled claims, file appeals on past denials, and get paid on accounts that have been sitting in 90 plus aging buckets.
Are you HIPAA compliant?
Fully. We operate on HIPAA compliant infrastructure with encrypted data transmission, role based access controls, audit trails, signed Business Associate Agreements, and ongoing staff training. Patient data security is built into every step of the revenue cycle.
What kind of reports will I receive?
You get a live dashboard with daily collections, A/R aging by payer, denial trends, top denial reasons, and provider productivity. Plus a detailed monthly performance review covering revenue, recovery, and recommendations for the next 30 days. No vague PDFs, no excuses.
