As a healthcare professional or office manager, ask yourself these questions:

1) Do we have patients that have not paid their copay to us?

2) Do we have patients that have not resolved their deductable and owe us?

3) Do we have patients that got the insurance check direct but did not pay us?

4) Do we have uninsured patients who never paid us?

5) Do we have a patient who ordered a custom medical device, dental insert, or set of eye glasses through our office then never picked them up?

6) Has the insurance company delayed resolving a payment on a submitted claim far too long?

7) Do we struggle just to get billings out let alone get the followup done with late paying patients?

8) Could we use additional staff but can't afford them?

9) Do we need an easy and systematic way to manage contacting late past due patients without offending and losing them?

10) Do we feel guilty about referring late paying patients to collections because we have not done proper in-house followup first?



Well, if you answered "YES" to any of the above questions and I told you I offered a service that would allow you to answer "NO" to all of them that would only cost you a flat fee of @$10 per late patient that would recover over 50% of what was owed in 40 days from patients who were less than 90 days late and would be diplomatic and keep you in complete control of the process then wouldn't you want to talk to me to set up an appointment to learn more? ....

Hospital Settles Class-Action Collection Case

Collections & Credit Risk | Tuesday, May 3, 2011


Why Your Hospital Should Use Collection Agencies that are Licensed in All States

A federal judge has approved a class-action settlement against an Indianapolis hospital and the method it used to collect overdue payments.

Plaintiff Michael Sargent was awarded $2,000 as part of the lawsuit he brought against St. Vincent Hospital in October 2008. Sargent sued St. Vincent, claiming the hospital violated state collection law by using St. Louis-based Outsource Group Inc., which was not licensed as a collection agency in Indiana. The class consisted of 21 parties that responded to the suit.

Sargent’s suit was preceded by a court claim brought by Outsource in August 2008 in Marion County (Indiana) Superior Court in an attempt to collect Sargent’s overdue payment. Outsource filed the suit even though it did not own the account upon which Sargent was indebted and was not a licensed collection agency in Indiana, according to court documents.

The class of plaintiffs represented anyone sued by Outsource for a debt owed to St. Vincent, or any one of its entities, before Oct. 27, 2008, in which a judgment had not been rendered.

Including Sargent’s award, the class received a total of $31,500, of which $25,500 paid attorney's fees.
