On a $10K–$40K monthly billing practice in Richmond County, that's $15,000 to $72,000 bleeding out annually before it ever hits your bank account. Staten Island's mix of NYC Medicaid, no-fault auto cases, and complex payer rules makes it especially vulnerable. We built ParaMed to make that bleed visible and then stop it.
Every claim submitted, every dollar collected, every denial recovered across our Staten Island client base updates here continuously.

Denials never reworked
65% of denied claims never get appealed. Teams write them off instead of fighting. We recover 92%.
Undercoding and missed modifiers
NYC reimbursement rates are higher — making undercoding especially costly for Staten Island practices billing commercial plans.
Slow A/R and timely filing misses
Claims past 90 days are 4x less likely to collect. Miss Empire BCBS or EmblemHealth timely filing and the claim becomes uncollectible.
No-fault and Workers' Comp billing errors
Staten Island has one of the highest no-fault auto caseloads in NYC. Billers unfamiliar with PIP protocols fumble these claims routinely.
Patient balance write-offs
Statements never sent, copays never collected, balances under $50 ignored. Adds up quickly across the year.
Credentialing gaps
New provider sees patients before credentialed. Every claim denied with no recourse. We start the credentialing clock on day one.
Free 30 minute audit. We pull 90 days of data and show you the real number.

The eight questions we hear on almost every discovery call. If yours isn't here, ask us on the call.
Most Staten Island practices are fully transitioned in 30 to 45 days. Week one is audit and access setup. Weeks two through four cover payer enrollment including EmblemHealth and NYC Medicaid, EDI/ERA setup, and EMR integration. By week five we're submitting clean claims under your tax ID.
