Telehealth Billing – Why Outsourcing is the Best Option?

Crisis begets change. True to the saying, the Covid-19 crisis we face today has ushered in many changes in the US healthcare system. It has changed the way we see and it has definitely changed the way we do things. For instance, it has transformed the way we deliver healthcare. One of the positive changes that the pandemic has brought about is the acceleration of Telehealth’s foray into mainstream medicine.

Telehealth is not by any means new to US healthcare. It was already touted as the fastest-growing medical care service by an AMA study conducted in 2019, pegging the growth rate at a striking rate of 53% with more than 76% of hospitals in the country offering the service. This year the pandemic is slowly yet forcefully pushing this number closer to 100. From big multispecialty hospitals to small single physician practices, every player in the healthcare business is now looking at telehealth as a viable way to continue serving the community with quality healthcare.

But climbing on to the telemedicine wagon is far from easy! With the Covid-19 situation getting more intense every day, the regulations around telehealth is changing constantly! The billing guidelines for telemedicine are evolving at such a rapid pace that it is quite tough to keep pace with them. For physicians and healthcare executives, already pinched for time, it could be an overwhelming challenge.

Have you added telehealth to your services recently with not enough time to deal with the billing uncertainties and continuous training requirements that accompany it?

The simple solution could be to outsource Telehealth Billing to established billing companies.
