There are millions of people with enormous medical bills, and the cost of medical care is still on the rise. In fact, over 90% of medical bills contain errors. The complex billing system that has developed in the healthcare industry makes it virtually impossible for most individuals to decipher these bills, and even the attorneys representing them sometimes need a little help.
MBAA advocates specialize in analyzing medical bills for errors--and we can translate our findings into testimony that can help you in court.
What distinguishes our organization from other medical/hospital bill auditors is our compliance review of federal billing guidelines established to identify fraudulent and abusive billing. Additionally, we target inflated charges that cannot be justified, such as a $1,028 billing for a contrast solution that retails for $2.80.
Advocates review every line of every bill from every provider, looking for possible duplication, unbundling, probable data entry errors that produce inappropriate charges, and other frequently encountered errors.
MBAA’s analytic advocates include legal nurses with first-hand experience covering most clinical settings, case managers, certified coders and other billing personnel, insurance fraud investigators, managed care professionals, former members of hospital administrative staff, and physicians.
