Unfortunately, we see many physicians who believe that there’s little they can do about declining reimbursements from managed care payors except to cut costs, improve billing efficiencies and work longer hours. Nothing could be further from the truth!
Whether you are just starting up or have an established practice, negotiating better payment for your services will enhance your revenue and help to offset these ever-increasing economic challenges.
Remember, you don’t have to wait until your contract is up for renewal to renegotiate the terms. You can request renegotiation with any payor at any time, and 80% of the time they will comply.
Unlike “governmental” payors, commercial insurers negotiate! If you simply sign on the dotted line and give no regard to the many options available to you, you may miss ongoing revenue opportunities for years to come. You do have options.
