What Is Accounts Receivable in Medical Billing?

Accounts receivable (AR) includes all unpaid insurance and patient balances for services already rendered. High AR indicates delayed reimbursement and lost revenue if not addressed promptly.

Effective medical AR management converts outstanding balances into consistent cash flow through timely follow-up and resolution.

AR Follow-Up and Denial Prevention

Our team performs proactive AR follow-up to identify unpaid and underpaid claims, focusing on aging balances and high-risk accounts. We investigate payer delays, correct errors, and resubmit claims to recover revenue efficiently.

Preventing future issues is just as important. By identifying common billing errors and payer trends, we help reduce claim denials before they occur—keeping your revenue cycle moving.
