Maximizing Your Lab’s Profitability: The Case for In-House Lab Billing
Laboratory revenue cycle management (Lab RCM) encompasses a complex array of data, insurers, rules, requirements, and regulations. The intricacies of coding, dealing with multiple insurers and clients, differing policies, and the need for regulatory compliance make it clear why even the most successful pathology practices and clinical laboratories face challenges with denials and rejections.

In this white paper, we will dissect the typical sales narratives employed by billing services to secure your business and explain why it is much more advantageous to consider managing your laboratory billing in-house, supported by advanced laboratory billing system software.
