Marlboro,
NJ (PRWEB) February 1, 2006 -- Dr. Glenn
W. Laub, the founder and Chairman of
the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department
at St. Francis Medical Center in New Jersey,
has seen his department’s monthly
collections increase by 19% since engaging Affinity
Billing. “They are specialists,” he
says, “Affinity
Billing understands the world of medical
billing and every step of their process
is optimized. They’ve added real
value to our practice. Today, our assistants
spend less time on overhead and more time
with patients.”
Dr. Laub's is not the only practice reaping
the benefits of Affinity Billing's unique
approach to the tedious and intricate medical
billing process. Doctors who do their own
billing know just how big a chore the process
can be. Trained experts are hard to find,
and cultivating new talent is arduous and
expensive. Since billing takes a backseat
to patient care, work can be sporadic,
inconsistent, and unreliable. Affinity
Billing uses advanced technology to
overcome these challenges.
Erez Lirov, Chief Operating Officer of Affinity
Billing, says clients regularly see
their monthly collections increase by 10%
to 35% and A/R beyond 120 days drop from
30% to below 5%. "With a traditional billing
process," he says, "there's just no way
to get these results."
