From Paul

Tell me where that £14,190 is coming from, and I'll come back with the three things to fix first.

A few quick questions, about two minutes, and no typing. I read every one myself and reply with the three things costing you most and where I'd start. If it's useful, we talk. If not, you've still got a clear picture.

No obligation, no sales call unless you ask for one, and nothing automated lands in your inbox.

I reply personally, usually the same day.
  • A consultant billing £300,000 per year with an 8% undercoding rate is losing £24,000 annually in unclaimed revenue
  • A coding audit on the previous 12 months of claims typically takes two to three weeks with a specialist billing service and identifies recoverable revenue in the majority of cases
  • Outsourcing PMI billing to a specialist reduces average days-to-payment, increases collection rates, and frees approximately six hours of PA time per week for patient-facing activity
  • Revenue is lost through coding errors that are never corrected
  • Cash flow is disrupted by insurer payment delays
  • Admin time crowds out clinical and business development activity
  • The consultant is unaware of their actual collection rate
  • Compliance risk increases as insurer audit criteria become more stringent

Frequently asked questions

Why does this problem persist?

Insurer policies differ and coding is time-consuming to get right Chasing payments is done manually and inconsistently Queries delay payment without clear notification

What is the cost of leaving it unaddressed?

Billing errors and admin time represent a direct and measurable revenue cost. A 5% loss on £300,000 of PMI revenue is £15,000 per year.

This is exactly what I do with UK private practices. Answer the few questions above and I'll come back personally with where to start. Paul.
