<p class="MsoNormal">At Western Carolina we partnered with a 3<sup>rd</sup> party billing company (a smaller billing company) who helped us with credentialing as well as contracts with insurance and billing. Our contract is set-up so they get 6% of what we
are paid (for which they bill – we still have some 3<sup>rd</sup> party hearing payers who want billing done through us on more of a letter/invoice and some private pay hearing aids that we bill ourselves).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It has been amazing for us as we do not have a person in our clinic who has knowledge or has done billing. We do not get any university support for our clinic so it has to be self-sufficient. We pay for our administrative assistant as well
as any clinic supplies or other things we may need through the clinic funds.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
