Simplified Claims

Claims Manager

By Erica Rascón on Jul 23, 2020 in News

Does the thought of Medicaid billing illicit groans from your staff? That’s understandable. Manual billing is time consuming, frustrating, and often riddled with errors.  Fortunately, you can boost staff morale and productivity with automated billing for Medicaid.

Claim submission woes can lead to high turnover

Medicaid provides consistent and vital funding for senior care. But the variables in filing processes and reimbursement can cause headaches for staff. Complicated filing practices can result in costly errors, wasted time, and delays in reimbursement. Those frustrations are just the beginning of more troubling issues.

As employee frustrations add up, turn over increases. High Speed Training of West Yorkshire reports on the top five reasons for high company turnover.  A lack of innovation and overworked employees are two factors that drive employees out the door. When companies fail to adapt innovative practices and technologies to support their staff, the staff suffers. Staff members are unnecessarily burdened with inefficient, redundant, unfulfilling work and stress. As a result, turnover rates soar, and organizations fail to reach their potential.
