How quickly will I see results after switching to ParaMed?+
Most practices see measurable improvement in their first billing cycle — typically within 30 days. First-pass acceptance rates improve immediately because we scrub claims more aggressively before submission. Denial rates begin dropping within 60–90 days as we eliminate root causes. A/R aging improves continuously as we work down your existing backlog while keeping new claims current.
Do I need to change my EHR or practice management system?+
No — ParaMed integrates with your existing system. We work with Epic, Athenahealth, AdvancedMD, Kareo/Tebra, Practice Fusion, eClinicalWorks, and all major EHR and PM platforms. There is zero workflow disruption for your clinical staff. We take on the billing side without touching your clinical operations.
What does ParaMed's RCM service cost?+
ParaMed uses performance-based pricing — typically a percentage of collections. There are no setup fees, no long-term contracts, and no hidden fees. We only earn when you collect, which means our incentives are completely aligned with yours. Most practices find that the revenue lift ParaMed generates far exceeds the cost of the service within the first 90 days.
Can ParaMed handle my existing A/R backlog?+
Yes — backlog recovery is one of our specialties and often generates significant cash flow for new clients immediately. We audit your existing A/R, prioritize by appeal deadline and recovery value, and begin working the highest-priority aged claims from day one. Most new clients recover meaningful revenue from their backlog within the first 60–90 days.
What specialties does ParaMed support?+
ParaMed has specialist billing expertise across primary care, internal medicine, cardiology, orthopedics, surgery, OB/GYN, pediatrics, neurology, psychiatry and behavioral health, physical therapy, urgent care, and ASC facility billing. Each specialty has different coding requirements, payer nuances, and documentation standards — and our team is trained on all of them.
How does ParaMed handle patient billing and collections?+
We manage patient statements and collections with a patient-friendly approach — clear, accurate statements with easy payment options. We follow up on outstanding patient balances systematically while maintaining the compassionate communication that preserves your practice's patient relationships. Patient billing is integrated into your overall revenue cycle, not handled as an afterthought.
