Where we can help on athenahealth

  • Claims waiting on your sideSome claims sit in a queue until someone at the practice acts on them, and that someone may be seeing patients all day. We work through them and only send your staff the ones that need them.
  • Denials that need a decisionWe look at the reason and decide on the route, then follow it through.
  • A summary of your reportsWe turn your reports into a short summary each month that says what changed and what comes next.
  • Older balancesWe sort aged items by value and deadline, which puts the time into balances that could still be paid.

Questions

Questions about billing on athenahealth

How do you get access to athenahealth?

With your authorization and a signed BAA, your practice gives our billers named user accounts with the permissions they need. If your organization or contract restricts outside users, tell us early and we'll work out what's allowed.

If we already pay for athenahealth billing services, does this still make sense?

It depends on your contract and what's being done for you today. We'd look at your results in the audit before suggesting any change.

You can hand over all of your medical billing, or start with denial management or A/R recovery.

We don't have a certified integration or partnership with athenahealth, which is a trademark of its owner. Fieldstone Billing is independent, and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by athenahealth.

We also have experience with Epic, eClinicalWorks and AdvancedMD.
