Medical Billing Services Designed for eClinicalWorks Users

GroupOne is one of the largest firms specialized in medical billing for eClinicalWorks users. GroupOne is
a Gold Certified training, support and implementation partner for eClinicalWorks. In fact, GroupOne ranked # 1 of all eClinicalWorks partners for number of implementations completed since 2009. Furthermore, for the 4th year in a row, GroupOne received a “Best in Class” ranking by Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) in its 4th Annual What Counts Survey.

GroupOne’s clients not only receive eCW specific billing services, but also have the benefit of partnering with a business that specializes in the best practices of eClinicalWorks workflow and utilization. We can help you optimize your utilization of eCW and believe that it’s an important advantage to have EHR experts providing reimbursement services. Our goal is to help you maximize the EHR with increased cash flow as one of the end-products.

Why Partner with GroupOne:

• Use of the award winning eClinicalWorks System included as part of billing service  - As part of the billing service, GroupOne will provide your entire practice with use of the software.  GroupOne will cover the license, annual maintenance, and support fees.
• 99.9% net collection rate.  For practices that were with GroupOne for all of 2010, GroupOne’s overall net collection rate for 2010 exceeded 99.9% - translating into an extra $10-15k per year for typical provider when compared to industry norm. 
• Rapid and seamless implementation – GroupOne works within your integrated eCW EHR and PM system – no need to try challenging interfaces or “cohabitation” with other systems.
• Your own 11-department, Complete Revenue Cycle Team.  Your team will consist of members specifically trained by task from 11 separate departments.    
• Complete accountability – You have full, real time access to the accounts receivable system.  You and your staff can monitor the history of any claim and view steps that are being taken to get each claim paid.  You have 24/7 access to variable reports as the need arises.  All parties are on the same page. 

• Increased Income – GroupOne’s staff consists of medical billing experts including certified coders and reimbursement specialists who make sure that insurance companies and patients pay you accurately for all services provided.  Furthermore, our charge capture process insures that all services are accounted for and properly submitted for payment. 
• Reduced expenses - According to industry surveys, our fee is typically less the national average and less than what it costs a practice internally.
• Less personnel headaches – No need to worry about trying to cover staff vacation time, staff replacement or constant retraining costs of new staff.
• Aligned incentives - GroupOne only gets paid when your practice gets paid.
• Reversible – You own and control your data.  If you decide to make a change, you can continue with the eClinicalWorks system post GroupOne by assuming the software fees.
• Full time eClinicalWorks expert as your partner - GroupOne is eClinicalWorks certified with certified trainers, implementation and support personnel on staff.   GroupOne can be a great additional resource for your EHR support needs and can provide guidance on workflow best practices.
• HITECH/Stimulus payments.  Assuming that your practice meets the final criteria established by the Secretary of HHS, your practice will be in line to qualify for up to $63,750 in stimulus payments.  As your partner, GroupOne intends to assist each of our clients in the qualification process so that they are in a position to participate in the HITECH payments that become available in 2011.
