We get scared of letting go and delegating to others. Because we’re afraid that things won’t be done right and that our customers are gonna be the ones to suffer.</p> <p>Doctor’s are no different. Some doctors run their medical offices this way. They are almost too involved in the administrative things and aspects of running their practice and it gets in the way of patient. They are concerned about outsourcing their medical billing or other administrative tasks.</p> <p>Other doctors, especially those in multi doctor practices hire staff in house to manage the administrative things, but it’s still hard for them to let go and their staff to get overwhelmed with things like following up with patient billing, the back and forth with insurance companies. These time consuming activities–especially those for medical billing–can make it harder to focus on the core functions of their practice–patient care.</p> <p>But the truth is if we don’t learn to delegate and get the support we need it’s going to be hard for us to grow. So learn to let go and outsource the things that are taking up too much time for your practice.</p> <p>Outsourcing to me Bill Baylis and my company MAS to manage your accounts and receivables and medical billing will make it easier for you and your staff to focus on the more important aspects of your practice—your patients.</p> </div> </div><p>The post <a href="https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/letting-go-to-grow/">Letting Go to Grow</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com">Medical Account Solutions</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/letting-go-to-grow/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> <post-id xmlns="com-wordpress:feed-additions:1">977</post-id> </item> <item> <title>Holding on to the Passion</title> <link>https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/holding-on-to-the-passion/</link> <comments>https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/holding-on-to-the-passion/#comments</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Bill Baylis]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Mon, 18 Oct 2010 14:35:03 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Ideas]]></category> <category><![CDATA[accounts receivable]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Bill Baylis]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Certified Billing Professionals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Follow-up Billing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[healthcare benefits]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Improve cash flow]]></category> <category><![CDATA[long island]]></category> <category><![CDATA[long island medical billing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[MAS]]></category> <category><![CDATA[maximize collections]]></category> <category><![CDATA[maximize patient revenue]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Medical Account Solutions]]></category> <category><![CDATA[outsourcing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[physician billing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[practice management]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rural sourcing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[streamling]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Your Medical Billing Office]]></category> <category><![CDATA[your other billing office]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/?p=974</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>Most doctors don't realize how much administrative work is involved in being able to take care of their patients by having to deal with the insurance companies and all of the rules and clerical things that come into play in order for them to deliver services.</p> <p>So what's the solution?

When MAS decided it was time to lend our talent and expand our client base toward doctor groups and individual practitioners, we knew that there we some misconceptions about outsourcing. <strong>We knew we would have to help to change the culture of what outsourcing really does.</strong></p> <p>At MAS we consider ourselves a “medical billing company”. Medical billing companies do much more then offer the choice of keeping your billing staff in-house or sending your accounts receivable out. Hospitals have been using medical billing agencies since the 1970’s. They have learned to use each agency to complement their own expertise and weaknesses.</p> <p>For instance, hospitals have reversed the trend of outsourcing all of their in-patient billing so they<strong> can put a concentrated effort on receivables </strong>by putting their best and brightest to streamline and maximize that part of the A/R.</p> <p>It’s a good policy because it puts them in control of their own destiny. They can directly manage the bread and butter of how a hospital will pay their payroll and important bills. However, most hospitals are smart enough to know they can’t do it all. For some hospitals, it’s best to send their no-fault billing to a qualified billing company because of the legal knowledge neededd to get these claims paid.</p> <p><strong>Companies like MAS are looking to change the face of outsourcing to let doctors and doctor groups know that its not all or nothing! We are here to help grow your business.</strong></p> <p>When you learn to properly delegate the areas that you aren’t strong in, you can focus on your strengths and leverage your team where they can produce the best results for you!</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/medical-billing-all-or/">Outsourcing: Is it all or nothing?

One of my favorite lessons is project management. When the ball flies up in the air, the players know their range and how far they are playing. If they come close to another player they call for the ball and back the other person off. It’s like poetry in motion when done right.</p> <p>Everyone knows what their role is and what’s expected. Good project management involves clarity on the strengths of each team member and what their responsibilities are. So when MAS works with its clients everyone is clear on what their area of expertise is and who’ll “get the ball”. <strong>Working with MAS is good “profit management.”</strong></p> <p>MAS clients get to focus more on their patients and worry less about their medical billing needs because we’re on the ball. We focus on making sure that bills go out in a timely fashion, that payments are properly collected and that profit recovery is maximized.</p> <p>Having MAS take the lead on medical billing means we look at all aspects from the medical billing process, streamlining resources, maximizing physician practice revenue and overall practice management.</p> <p>Our doctors get to focus on what they do best—taking care of their patients. A win-win for everyone.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourmedicalbillingoffice.com/profit-management/">Whose Ball is It?
