Medical Billing Companies & Consultants in Mission, KS

MCA Medical Billing Solutions, L.L.C. is an Overland Park, Kansas firm that handles outsourced revenue cycle work for post-acute care providers. Skilled nursing facilities are its main focus. It also bills for home health agencies and hospice organizations.

The company started in 2003 as a small billing team that wanted to take paperwork off skilled nursing operators, and it has built its whole business around that sector rather than general physician or hospital billing. Its navigation lists client states across the country, including Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Illinois, Florida, New York and others.

Services for Facilities

Clients can hand over the full revenue cycle or pick individual pieces. In the full model, MCA prepares and submits claims, chases late or short payments, and runs collections. Facilities that keep billing in-house can bring the firm in for specific problems such as stale receivables, denials or extra staffing during a transition. Its listed services include:

• SNF billing and consolidated billing, including Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurance claims
• PDPM billing and optimization, PPS support and LTC pharmacy billing
• MDS consulting
• Aging AR collections, AR clean-up and revenue recovery
• Denial prevention, appeals management and audit support, including write-off review
• Patient statements and a call center that answers resident billing questions
• Provider enrollment and credentialing for SNFs, plus demographics entry
• Temporary or project-based billing staff

How the Firm Works

For receivables, MCA's billers review a facility's aging balances, correct claims that still qualify, and try to get them paid before payer filing deadlines run out. Clients can get monthly or weekly AR presentations so finance leaders see where balances stand.

If an operator suspects its adjustments are too high, the team will give a second opinion by comparing write-off totals and ratios with industry benchmarks. For statements, MCA sends out patient bills that include facility and ancillary charges and takes the calls that follow. Each concern is logged in the provider's patient management system and resolved with the facility.

MCA works directly inside the systems facilities already use. It offers dedicated PointClickCare and MatrixCare billing, PointClickCare triple check, detailed census work and PointClickCare-based statements and private collections. The firm is listed as a partner in the PointClickCare marketplace. It has also built its own automation tool, SNFY, which applies AI to parts of skilled nursing billing.

Client Results

Testimonials on the site come from senior care operators. Providence Place says MCA recovered more than $400,000 in older receivables in under two months, and credits its RAC audit defense process with an unbroken record in audits and commercial record reviews.

Meadowlark Hills Retirement Community reports that after it moved from another outside billing vendor, its days in AR fell by six and its balances over 90 days fell by 31 percent. The site also includes a testimonial from the CFO of the Kansas Commission on Veteran's Office.

For buyers, the firm's main selling points are its sole focus on post-acute billing, its long history and its hands-on work in the major long-term care software platforms.
