Commercial Billing FAQ
Which commercial payers do you bill?
We bill all major commercial payers including BlueCross BlueShield, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Cigna, WellCare, Molina, and hundreds of regional and local plans. We maintain current payer-specific requirements for each.
What is the difference between in-network and out-of-network ambulance billing?
In-network billing means your agency has a contract with the insurer at negotiated rates. Out-of-network means no contract exists — the payer reimburses at their own rate (often lower) and the patient may owe more. We handle both scenarios and maximize reimbursement in either case, including balance billing where applicable and permitted.
What happens when two insurers both cover a patient?
Coordination of benefits (COB) rules determine which insurer pays first (primary) and which pays second (secondary). We manage the entire COB process — identifying all coverage, billing in the correct order, and following up on secondary claims after the primary pays.
How do you handle timely filing deadlines?
Each payer sets a timely filing deadline — typically 90 days to 1 year from the date of service. We submit all claims within 72 hours of transport, track every claim, and monitor for underpayments, denials, and approaching timely filing limits.
