Q. How often are patients billed? How about past due accounts?
A. If you contract for this service, we will bill your patients for you on a monthly basis for any balance due, once payment has been received by their insurance carrier. Patients will receive past due notices for 30, 60, and 90 days past due. After "soft collection" attempts have been exhausted, we recommend turning the account over to a collection agency.
