Caryl Serbin, RN, BSN, LHRM, President and Founder of Serbin Medical Billing, wrote a column for Becker's ASC Review that provides insight and guidance on pre-procedure reasons why ASCs may be losing money. It is the first in a two-part series.
Guidance covers areas including:
Non-covered procedures
Patient financial counseling
Patient information
Pre-procedure collections
Promissory notes
As Caryl notes, "Even if … shortcomings occur infrequently, multiple occurrences can adversely affect your ASC's revenue stream."
