See how Midwest Service Bureau boosts medical billing software self-pay recovery by platform-specific rates: Epic 27%, Cerner 24%, Meditech 28% for healthcare providers across the Midwest
Healthcare providers using modern billing software still struggle with patient balance collections. Despite advanced EHR and practice management systems, the average hospital leaves 15-20% of self-pay revenue uncollected. At Midwest Service Bureau, we’ve developed specialized workflows for over 25 major medical billing platforms, helping healthcare organizations recover millions in previously written-off patient debt while maintaining full HIPAA and Regulation F compliance.
Patient balances accumulate in AR for 90+ days without strategic collection activity
Staff lack specialized training on compliant self-pay collection techniques for specific platforms
EHR workflows don’t integrate seamlessly with professional collection processes
High-deductible health plans create larger patient responsibility amounts requiring expert handling
Manual processes consume valuable administrative time and clinical resources
Complex compliance requirements (HIPAA, 501r, No Surprises Act) complicate collection efforts
Illinois: follows 210 ILCS 88 charity-care caps
