Building office relationships (related to codes)

[Guest guest]

I can't tell you yet how well this model works, but the one I'm negotiating with

two doc offices is to contract with me for a flat rate for a specific scope of

work. For example, $X for 1 group and 2 clinics. The clinics would be booked

through the office and billed to the insurance company by the doctor. I will

chart and apply appropriate ICD codes so the billing person can put it together.

Both of the docs I've talked to seem open to this because they understand that

while it may not be direct cost savings I will be improving their customer

satisfaction (thus improving overall billing) and improving the health of their

children and families thus improving the profitability of their practice.
