Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Running a healthcare practice is rewarding, but it also comes with financial challenges. Many practice owners ask us the same questions when they’re looking for billing support or revenue cycle management help. To make it easier, we’ve pulled together answers to the most common questions we hear.
What is Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) in healthcare, and why is it important for my practice?
Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) is the process that makes sure your medical practice gets paid for the care you provide. It includes checking patient insurance before appointments, coding visits correctly, submitting claims, and following up on payments.
Why it matters: if any of these steps are missed, your revenue gets delayed or lost. A strong revenue cycle process helps you collect what you’re owed, keep your cash flow healthy, and reduce stress for you and your staff.
Why do medical practices need revenue cycle management support or billing services?
Most medical practices are busy taking care of patients, and billing often gets complicated. Insurance rules change constantly, denials pile up, and patient balances are easy to miss. Without help, it’s common for practices to lose money without even realizing it.
That’s why revenue cycle management support is so valuable. With the right billing partner, you recover money that’s being left on the table, reduce errors, and free your team to focus on patient care instead of chasing claims.
What types of healthcare practices can benefit from outsourced medical billing and revenue cycle management?
We work with many types of practices, including physicians, dentists, urgent care groups, imaging centers, surgery centers, labs, and non-physician owners such as nurse practitioners, chiropractors, and physical therapists.
No matter the specialty, most practices face the same challenges: denied claims, overdue accounts, and slow payments. Outsourced revenue cycle management helps solve those challenges quickly and brings best practices from across the healthcare industry.
How is Prosperis different from other medical billing companies or revenue cycle management services?
Most billing companies stop at claim submission. At Prosperis, we go further. We act as your financial partner and focus on both the details and the bigger picture.
Here’s how we stand out:
• We work quickly to recover revenue and improve cash flow.
• We collaborate with your existing staff rather than replacing them.
• Our fees are tied to results, not promises.
• We help you look beyond today’s billing and build long-term practice value.
How is Prosperis different from other healthcare consulting firms that offer billing support?
Many consulting firms give recommendations and walk away. We don’t. Prosperis combines consulting with hands-on revenue cycle management. That means we not only show you where improvements can be made, but we also stay involved to put those improvements into action. This way, you see real results in your collections and cash flow, not just ideas on paper.
Can Prosperis help if my practice already has an electronic health record (EHR) and billing system in place?
Yes. In fact, most of our clients already use an EHR and billing software. We don’t ask you to switch systems. Instead, we help you get the most out of the tools you already have.
Many practices only use a fraction of their system’s capabilities. We help you uncover missed opportunities, streamline workflows, and fix billing gaps so your current EHR becomes a real asset to your revenue cycle.
What are the benefits of outsourcing revenue cycle management or medical billing services?
Outsourcing gives your practice access to experts who know billing, coding, and payer rules inside and out. You don’t have to hire extra staff or worry about constant training.
The benefits include:
• Faster payments and fewer claim denials.
• Lower overhead costs compared to managing everything in-house.
• More time for your staff to focus on patients.
• For many practices, outsourcing isn’t just a cost saver — it’s a growth strategy.
What financial and billing reports will I receive with Prosperis revenue cycle management services?
We believe in full transparency. You’ll receive regular reports that give you a clear picture of your financial health. These include:
• Accounts receivable reports (money still owed to your practice).
• Denial reports that explain which claims are denied and why.
• Collections by payer and by procedure.
• Month-to-month cash flow trends.
• These reports take the guesswork out of your finances and help you make smart business decisions with confidence.
How quickly will my medical practice see results from revenue cycle management support?
Every practice is different, but many of our clients notice improvements in cash flow within 30 to 90 days. Our 90-Day AR Blitz program, for example, is designed to recover older, unpaid claims in just three months.
By focusing first on the biggest and most urgent opportunities, you start seeing results quickly and feel immediate relief in your bottom line.
Can Prosperis provide short-term revenue cycle management or billing support instead of full-service outsourcing?
Yes. Not every practice needs a long-term partnership. Some just need help with a short-term project, like cleaning up a backlog of unpaid claims or fixing a spike in denials.
We offer flexible options: short-term projects, targeted campaigns, or ongoing full-service support. You choose the level of help that works best for your practice right now.
How do I get started with Prosperis revenue cycle management and medical billing services?
It’s simple. The first step is to schedule a discovery call. We’ll review your current billing process, run a quick analysis, and show you where money may be slipping through the cracks.
From there, we’ll recommend the level of support that fits your needs, whether that’s a one-time project or an ongoing partnership.
