Upstate Billing, Inc. concentrates exclusively on ambulance billing. Our core philosophy is to do beyond the expected, and to achieve more than you expect. We focus on building strong relationships in every department, from the ambulance crew members to the hospital staff and insurance carriers. We successfully break through barriers where other companies often stop, to recover even small amounts that will ultimately increase your revenue.

We have an excellent follow-up system established and work hard to fight for full payments.

We work together with the ambulance corp and the hospitals, to organize methods to ensure that the largest amount of money is recovered.

We can offer the following:

	We compare dispatch logs with the PCRs to make sure that every call is reported.
	We oversee the ambulance company to make sure that the PCRs are properly filled in and work with the volunteers to make sure the information is accurate.
	We understand how to code the ICD-9 codes to ensure maximum return
	Building relationships with the hospital staff to achieve better cooperation
	Speed. We will call the carriers as soon as we get the notification, to ensure that we submit the claim prior to the 90 day limit

We collaborate with the insurance carriers and patients to ensure better results.

	About 5% of payments are submitted directly from the insurance company to the patient. In these cases, we have an exceptional track record for recovering these funds.
	We call and submit claims as many as 3 to 4 times, to recover even small amounts.
	We have personal relationships with Medicaid, Medicare and insurance companies, so we are familiar with and anticipate each companies’ requests and understand how to target each company for what we can hope to recover from them.
	We continuously strive to establish personal relationships with carriers to obtain advice and better cooperation.
	On behalf of the ambulance company, we discuss all questions and concerns with patients regarding the billing system and procedures.

And, most importantly, Upstate Billing, Inc. stays on top of important updates in the ambulance billing industry, by attending conferences and seminars to learn about new and changing laws and regulations.
