While practices strive towards efficient and qualitative medical billing and coding to enhance claims first-pass rate and monthly collections; conversely claim denials, rejections and low payments are inevitable. • Medical Practices lose a tremendous amount of revenue by not working on denials and ignoring unpaid claims. • These missed revenues can be earned by reworking and appealing with the payer, the process of following up on the denials with an insurance company until full reimbursement is called AR recovery. • Let us look in detail on how effective AR follow-up can help recover payment even for aging claims.
