In this complex world of medical billing, collecting debts can be very difficult and time consuming. Medical debt collection is complex because of the number of agencies often involved including insurance companies, Medicare, Medicaid, and most important, the patient. For the average doctor's office or dental facility, hiring a full staff of collection professionals may be necessary, but can be too costly of an option to consider. This is where AGIS Medical debt collectors can help, especially those specializing in medical debts.

By 2012, patient responsibilities (patient receivables) will
constitute 30% or more of your total revenue, an increase from 12% in 2007. As patients account for more and more of your revenue the inability to collect is cause for immediate concern.

You have to install an action plan to collect your bad debt on your outstanding accounts.

If you do not have an action plan for collecting your past due accounts your practice is at heightened risk. The longer you wait to collect from your patients, the less likely you'll see

any payment at all. Having a collection strategy that targets delinquent accounts early in the revenue cycle is necessary in today's economy.

Why not use the proven strategy that has been in place for years at Mayo Clinic, Scottsdale Healthcare, St. Joe's and hospitals nationwide. They all use collection letters from a third party early in the revenue cycle because they work. Take a page right out of their Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). Our FastCollect program was designed for practitioners like you, easy to implement, gets immediate results, and costs little or nothing to use.

FastCollect is the automated collection strategy made up of letters that targets your delinquent accounts early in the collection cycle. A cost-effective approach that may eliminate the need to place accounts with a
collection agency.
