You Care, We Collect

Our mission is simple: to grow your medical practice’s revenue.

Our primary service is handling your billing and collections, and we have consistently achieved results above industry standards for important benchmarks like days in A/R and Net Collection Percentage. The science of medicine is hard enough. The science of profitably delivering care is another discipline altogether.

At KSL, we believe your focus is medicine, while our focus is exclusively the business of medicine. Because of our focus and years of experience, we have developed a proven methodology for every step of the revenue cycle, selected the best Practice Management System and Electronic Medical Record technology, and hand-picked and developed a top-flight talented team. The result is a system that consistently generates profitable returns for your practice.

We will help you collect money you have already earned, so the end result is that your job becomes easier and more efficient and your bottom line increases.

Why KSL?

If you are contemplating outsourcing, we recommend you allow us to conduct a formal analysis of your practice to see if outsourcing is appropriate for your practice. An outsourcing arrangement must ensure that the dollars invested generate a positive return. That is, you should outsource to boost revenue, increase your cash flow, or save money.

Automation by itself does not solve the problem. It can only work if the practice’s underlying revenue cycle processes are sound, from collecting accurate information and verifying coverage, to properly submitting bills and following up on unpaid patient balances and denied claims.

The KSL Advantage:

  • The right experience.
  • The right software and technology.
  • The best people.
  • The “best practices” policies.
  • Exceptional customer service.

KSL brings you caring, hardworking people who treat your account as their business, providing value-added services tailored to help your operation run more efficiently. More than “billing only” competitors, KSL maximizes your revenue and profits. That’s the KSL advantage.

If increasing your profitability were as simple as increasing volume, we would simply advise you to take on more patients. Instead, our approach is designed to help you capture reimbursement for the work you are already doing – revenue you are entitled to – but may be slipping through your fingers, due to errors or oversights.

Billing and Collections

While You Practice Medicine, We Take Care of Your Revenue Stream

At the heart of KSL’s services are billing and collections. While you practice medicine, we take care of your revenue stream. We can uncover lost revenue, decrease days in Accounts Receivable, and increase your cash flow.

Medical Billing is as Complex as Medicine Itself

Optimizing your practice’s revenues is much more than submitting the right claims. We look at the entire process from the very beginning of when a charge is first entered, through claims auditing and editing by the biller, claims submission, claims to monitor, and ultimately receipt of payment.

We Manage Your Insurance Contracts So You Don’t Have To

As a physician, you want to maximize your revenue and make sure you are getting paid what you deserve. KSL will assist you in navigating the managed care landscape.

We Streamline the Credentialing Process

With all the other functions that practice managers, physicians, and facilities must address in running a medical practice, it can be cumbersome to maintain credentialing applications for physicians and allied professionals. Functions that we provide to you:

Management Services and Consulting

KSL offers full management services and consulting, if necessary. One of the advantages of working with KSL is that we can tailor our services to suit your unique circumstances.

This includes the full range of management services, including all aspects of business planning and support, negotiations, strategic planning, administrative support, HR oversight, and operational analysis.

We Help You Manage the Coding

Coding and compliance can be an exciting field full of research and investigation. It is one of the most vital elements of a “best practices” billing company. Our certified coders are ready and willing to lend their expertise.

KSL coders are ready to assign ICD-10 and CPT codes based on documentation. We can also provide coding audits and education, in addition to just being a resource here for you.
