The Hidden Cost

That's how much collectible revenue the average Buffalo practice loses every year to denials, slow A/R, and miscoded claims.

On a $420K annual practice, that's $33,600 to $63,000 bleeding out before it ever hits your bank account. Most owners only see the symptom — the cash flow being tight — not the cause. We built ParaMed to make that bleed visible and then stop it.

02 · The Diagnosis

What's quietly breaking your revenue cycle, and how we fix it

Current State

The bleed you can't see

  • Denials piling up in folders no one has time to appeal, written off at 90 days
  • National billers who don't know Excellus or Independent Health timely filing rules
  • Generalist coders downcoding to play it safe, leaving RVU value on the table
  • A/R aging past 60 days with no clear plan to chase it down
  • Front desk eligibility errors triggering denials you only see weeks later
  • NY Workers' Comp and no fault claims fumbled by billers who never touch them
The Fix

A revenue engine built for Buffalo

  • Every denied claim worked within 48 hours by a human, not a queue
  • Specialists who know Excellus, Independent Health, Univera contracts cold
  • Specialty certified coders capturing full RVU value without triggering audits
  • Real time dashboards showing where every dollar is in the cycle
  • Real time eligibility verification before the patient checks in
  • Dedicated NY Workers' Comp Board and no fault PIP specialists on staff

Where Buffalo practices lose 8 to 15% of collectible revenue

$33,600–$63,000

Annual leak on $420K practice

01 3-5%

Denials never reworked

65% of denied claims never get appealed. Teams write them off instead of fighting. We recover 92%.

$12,600–$21,000Annual
02 2-4%

Undercoding and missed modifiers

Generalist coders downcode to play it safe. Specialty coders capture full RVU value without triggering audits.

$8,400–$16,800Annual
03 1-3%

Slow A/R and timely filing misses

Claims past 90 days are 4x less likely to collect. Miss timely filing and the claim becomes uncollectible.

$4,200–$12,600Annual
04 1-2%

Eligibility errors at front desk

Wrong insurance verified at check in means denial weeks later. We run real time eligibility before visits.

$4,200–$8,400Annual
05 1-2%

Patient balance write offs

Statements never sent, copays never collected, balances under $50 ignored. Adds up over a year.

$4,200–$8,400Annual

Credentialing gaps

New provider sees patients before credentialed. Every claim denied with no recourse. Happens often.

08 · Fit Check

Who we're built for, and who we're not

We're not the right fit for every practice. This honest filter saves both of us a 30 minute discovery call if it's not a match.

A Strong Fit

You should book a call if

  • You're a Buffalo or Western NY practice billing $30K to $40K+ monthly
  • Your A/R days are creeping past 40 and you don't know why
  • You're tired of denied claims piling up in folders no one touches
  • You want real time visibility into your money, not monthly PDFs
  • You'd rather pay a partner with skin in the game than a salaried biller
  • You want a phone call answered when you have a question
B Not a Fit

You should look elsewhere if

  • You want the absolute cheapest biller and only care about price per claim
  • You're looking for someone to just push claims without thinking
  • You're unwilling to share access to your EMR or clearinghouse data
  • You expect overnight transformation without a 30 to 60 day transition
  • You're not willing to fix front desk eligibility gaps if we find them
  • You'd rather keep losing money than change a broken workflow

14 · Common Questions

What Buffalo practice owners ask us

The eight questions we hear on almost every discovery call. If yours isn't here, ask us on the call.

How long does onboarding take?

Most Buffalo practices are fully transitioned in 30 to 45 days. Week one is audit and access setup. Weeks two through four cover payer enrollment, EDI/ERA setup, and EMR integration. By week five we're submitting clean claims under your tax ID.

Do I have to switch my EMR or PM system?

No. We work with every major system used in Buffalo including AdvancedMD, Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Kareo, NextGen, Practice Fusion, DrChrono, and most legacy systems. We integrate where you are.

What happens to my existing biller or in house team?

That's your call. Some practices reassign in house billers to front desk eligibility roles. Others let team members go gradually. We can run parallel for the first 30 days if you want a soft transition.

How do I know you're actually working my claims?

You get a real time dashboard. Every claim status, every denial, every payer touch is logged. You see exactly what we did, when we did it, and what the outcome was. No black box.

Do you handle credentialing too?

Yes. Full credentialing for new providers with Buffalo commercial payers, NY Medicaid, and Medicare is available as an add on. Most credentialing completes in 60 to 120 days depending on the payer.

What about patient statements and collections?

Available as a separate service. We send statements, run electronic balance reminders, handle patient calls about bills, and route balances past 90 days to collections agencies of your choice.

Are you HIPAA compliant?

Yes. HIPAA, HITECH, SOC 2 Type II, and we sign a full BAA before any data flows. All staff trained annually, access is role based with audit logs, every transmission encrypted at rest and in transit.

What if I'm under contract with my current biller?

Send us your contract. We'll review it and tell you exactly when and how you can switch. In most cases there's a 30 to 90 day exit clause. We can time the transition so it doesn't disrupt cash flow.

HIPAA, HITECH & NY State Compliance

Every claim, every transmission, every staff member audited and trained. Your data stays protected.
