Benefit and payer routing
Identify the relevant medical or vision benefit for the service. Record eligibility and referral requirements as applicable.
Ophthalmology & Optometry BILLING SUPPORT
Distinguish medical eye care from routine vision benefits.
Eye care administration needs to connect plan type, performed services and any diagnostic or surgical work. Medical and routine vision coverage should be checked separately.
WHERE THE WORK GETS STUCK
The claim starts before submission.
A patient’s vision plan may not cover a medical evaluation in the same way as their health plan. Incorrect payer routing can create a denial before the clinical detail is reviewed.
SPECIFIC OPERATIONAL CHECKS
What we connect in the workflow.
Examination and diagnostic record
Match the recorded exam and testing to the charges. Check component responsibilities and avoid coding from the appointment label alone.
Surgical or testing follow ups
Track authorization, provider participation and record requests. Review postoperative episode context before submitting related services.

CLAIM VOLUME AND SCOPE
Use your workload, not an industry guess.
Routine exams, medical visits, diagnostics and procedures shape the workload. We review the service mix and payer paths before quoting.
Billing is quoted as a percentage of monthly collections. Provider count, workflows and historical outstanding work help define the responsibilities included in your agreement.
See Billing & RCMBEFORE WE BEGIN
Agree on the details that affect delivery.
We map your payer mix, systems and the three workflow checks above, then agree on the records and scope needed. No practice information is required before the mutual agreement is signed.
No. We identify gaps and possible next actions. Coverage, records, filing windows and payer decisions determine whether a claim can be corrected or paid.
After the agreement and a BAA, we arrange a secure handover with approved access. Please do not send patient information through public website forms or regular email.
CONNECT THE DETAILS
Start with your practice, not a generic proposal.
A Free Practice Review connects billing, credentialing, enrollment and payment setup. We agree on scope first, with a signed agreement and BAA before practice data moves.
