Midland Professional Services for Self-Pay

In partnership with contracting hospitals, we concentrate on delivering the highest revenue flow from selfpay and third party billing.


Public Benefits Eligibility
 
Many companies tout themselves as being "experts" at providing public benefits eligibility services. Indeed, a few types of cases are straightforward and relatively simple. However, a majority of cases are time-consuming, requiring specialized expertise and are demanding of resources. Midland's nearly 20 years of experience demonstrates that to truly be successful at managing the financial outcomes of large volumes of self-pay patients, we are required to:
 

w Be knowledgeable on the regulations of multiple states as well as federal regulations;

w Be dedicated to staying current on the rules and regulations, as they change frequently; 

w Utilize technology to the fullest extent without compromising patient privacy or data integrity;

w Have processes and procedures as well as appropriate staffing levels in place that can accommodate fluctuating case volumes;

w Never substitute the "human touch" by over-reliance on technology.

The Midland Group specializes in the more complex federal programs, including Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). It is often difficult and time consuming for hospitals to obtain approval in such complex cases. Our successful conversion of SSI days can significantly increase your hospital's Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) adjustment.

Financial Counseling

Best practice dictates that hospitals be proactive in working with the uninsured to help them find solutions to satisfy their financial obligations. It has been shown that the more payment options available to uninsured patients, the more likely the bills will be paid. 

A well-run financial counseling program is the conduit for the hospital to help uninsured and underinsured patients meet their financial obligations. By presenting every available option: credit card payments, extended payment plans, prompt pay discounts or expanded charity programs - the hospital will generate goodwill. Patients appreciate the opportunity to meet their obligations in a dignified manner.

The Midland Group has the depth and experience to provide financial counselors to hospitals of any type and size. Midland's financial counselors will work within the hospital's processes to counsel patients on the options offered by the hospital and, if needed, collect cash and process charity care applications as well.
