AMCG is a national, premier billing and collection service company with seven years of healthcare insurance experience. Mitchell E. Rubin, founder and president of VeridianHealth, LLC, states, “The merging of AMCG into VeridianHealth’s existing line of healthcare companies, allows us to offer an even broader, more comprehensive scope of value-added services to our customers. Doctors across an array of specialties can select from a variety of VeridianHealth’s programs -- all of which are designed to help doctors deliver better patient care while maximizing their practice profitability.” Rubin continues, “AMCG understands that accurate billing drives efficiencies and revenues and offers doctors the benefit of outsourcing the necessary tasks involved in billing and collection to an AMCG trained healthcare insurance professional, who will help to maximize their practice efficiencies and streamline processes.”
The most significant difference between AMCG and run-of-the-mill billing and collection companies is its size and the fact that VeridianHealth has many physicians, including doctors of podiatry and doctors of chiropractic, on staff and on-site -- available at a moment’s notice for account clarification and/or consultation to AMCG’s team of trained professionals. “Filing podiatric claims is very specialized, so I appreciate AMCG’s experience, in-depth knowledge of codes and other details unique to my field,” states Jondelle Jenkins, DPM.
“Of perhaps greater or equal significance to attest for the quality and value that drive AMCG’s superior services are the corporate resources and financial backing that are inherently provided under its umbrella organization, VeridianHealth, a multi-million dollar, healthcare service provider,” states Jason Newman, AMCG Director.
AMCG’s team of professionals, include medical, billing, and collections specialists with many years of billing and collections experience behind them. These billing and collections specialists use up-to-date, appropriate payer- specific fee schedules to assure complete reimbursement and carefully monitor codes used to ensure that they fully represent the clinical services that the doctor is providing. AMCG’s expert services include: recovery of revenue from unpaid claims owed by insurance agencies, claims appeal, and verification of all reimbursement amounts to ensure they are usual and customary. Standard services include: comprehensive reporting packages, fast turnaround, accuracy, and payment in as little as seven days.
