Medical Billing Companies & Consultants in Forked River, NJ

Overview

Accurate Billing Group LLC is a veteran-owned revenue cycle management firm based in Forked River, in Ocean County, New Jersey. It takes on outsourced billing work for healthcare providers so clinicians spend less time on claims and paperwork and more time with patients. The company's promotional videos feature Anthony and Toni Ann. The firm says it has more than two and a half decades of industry experience. It also reports certification from the state's banking and insurance regulator.

Who They Serve

New Jersey is the firm's main market. Its service area includes counties across the state, from Bergen, Passaic and Sussex in the north to Cumberland and Cape May in the south. Ocean and Monmouth counties, which surround Lakewood, are also covered. The firm's billing staff work remotely, so it can also take clients in other states, on either coast. Prospective clients can arrange a meeting at the Forked River office. A separate post office box in Manahawkin handles mail.

Core Services

The main offering is full-cycle insurance billing, from the first claim through to final payment. Credentialing for healthcare providers is offered alongside it. The firm also offers several add-on services that cover other parts of a practice's finances:

• End-to-end medical billing and revenue cycle management
• Provider credentialing with insurance payers
• Patient insurance verification before visits
• Ongoing accounts receivable tracking and reporting
• Complimentary review of aging receivables
• Consulting for new and established practices
• Training for existing office staff

The firm treats insurance verification as the first step of the revenue cycle. It points out that many billing companies leave this job to the front desk or to patients. Accurate Billing Group does the verification itself and gives the practice fully confirmed coverage for each patient. This can help small offices that have no dedicated reception staff. On the receivables side, the firm monitors amounts owed and collected so clients can see their financial position at any time. It will also review older unpaid balances at no charge and explain how they might be recovered.

Consulting and Practice Support

For providers opening a new office, the company offers guidance on topics such as choosing software and setting up patient scheduling. It stays involved as the practice gets started. For established offices that are struggling, it can retrain current employees and help the practice reset its priorities.

What Distinguishes the Firm

The company stresses service tailored to each client, pricing options matched to a practice's budget, and close attention to detail. It describes itself as big enough to take on substantial workloads and small enough to stay attentive to each account. It has publicly said it chose not to renew its paid Better Business Bureau membership. The company says the decision was about cost and that the money is going instead into technology, compliance and client support.
