Services
American Medical Billing has run claims for Illinois practices since 1994, paid only on what we actually collect for you. Every service below carries a figure you can check us against: ours, and the one it beats. We work with practices from allergy and cardiology through psychiatry, physical therapy and urology, and we file commercial insurance, Medicare, Medicaid and Public Aid, Workers' Compensation, personal injury and motor vehicle accident claims for all of them.
Five services, one contingency fee
Where we have a real figure to put against an industry number, it is here. Where we do not, that is because we would rather tell you plainly than make one up.
Electronic and paper claims, submitted primary, secondary and tertiary, with clean-claim editing that catches errors before a payer ever sees them.

We bill deductibles, co-pays and co-insurance so your front desk does not have to argue about them. Patients call us with billing questions, not you, and we work soft collections before anything goes to an outside agency.
Full A/R management with monthly, annual and practice-analysis reports, plus credentialing and free patient record setup. We isolate anything unpaid at 45 days and call the payer ourselves.

How each one actually works
Read past the numbers above and this is what they come from: the daily work of filing, following up, and calling payers until a claim is resolved.
Claims
We file primary, secondary and tertiary claims electronically and on paper, running every one through clean-claim editing before it ever reaches a payer. That discipline is why our first-pass rejection rate holds at 1%. An AHIMA-certified coder sits on staff, and claims go out within 24 to 48 hours of the visit.
Ask about your claim volumeDenials
When a claim comes back denied, we run the appeal ourselves rather than handing you a form to fill out. We also flag any usual and customary rate a payer tries to lowball you on and challenge it directly. You do not chase this. We do.
Talk to us about a denialPatient Billing
Deductibles, co-pays and co-insurance get billed and followed up by us, in soft collections first, with an outside medical receivables agency as a last resort. When a patient calls with a question about their bill, they are calling us, not tying up your front desk.

Full A/R management with monthly, annual and practice-analysis reporting you can log in and read yourself. Anything still unpaid at 45 days gets isolated, and we call the payer to find out why. Credentialing and patient record setup come free, with no setup fee either way.
