OwlMD powers new Nephrology Billing Service

Chicago, IL –NextLevel MBS, a billing services company specializing in Nephrology practices, announced its selection of the OwlMD Practice Manager as its billing & claims reimbursement system.

In announcing the NextLevel MBS selection of OwlMD, company Manager & Business Development Officer Bob Anderson cited OwlMD’s deep experience serving Nephrology practices:

“Owl’s team of physicians, financial managers, and billing experts have extensive experience dealing with payer-specific rules and the changing needs of Nephrology practices, including vascular access.”

According to Anderson, NextLevel MBS will utilize the OwlMD practice management system as part of its integrated approach to billing & reimbursements management, an approach that also yields significant value as a result of the client’s own use (direct and indirect) of the system’s features.

These features include automatic calculation of non-Medicare MCP billing, the ability for practices to print custom Encounter Forms or Super Bills showing real-time patient demographics, account balances and co-pay amounts at the Front Desk, and the ability to easily manage patient scheduling & registration from multiple locations.

Says Anderson, “Our integrated approach to billing & reimbursements management not only facilitates bestpractice patient administration, it also provides the practice with tremendous visibility of their financial performance – and the performance of the Billing Service and Payers.

“This kind of accountability is a direct outcome of our investment and belief in leveraging Internet-based technologies, including electronic billing and online posting of remittances (ERA) and Explanation of Benefits (EOB).”
