Billing and collections

Collecting fees for services rendered is among the most challenging aspects of any business. Oftentimes with physician practices, this can be especially difficult due to the presence of third-party insurers and potential confusion on the patient's part about patient payment responsibilities. The Medical Society of Virginia (MSV) provides tips and suggestions for collecting fees and payments. Also included is information on proposed and passed state and federal legislation on patient billing and collections.
