Accounts Receivable Management & Follow-Up

AR management and follow-up is the systematic tracking and pursuit of unpaid claims to reduce days in AR and accelerate cash flow, with relentless follow-up on aging and denied claims. MSRCM's AR follow-up services ensure that insurance payments are recovered before they hit timely filing limits.

Leaving aging claims unpursued leads directly to revenue leakage. Payer backlogs and processing delays often stall claims in "pending" status indefinitely. MSRCM bridges this gap by dedicating a specialized team to follow up on every unpaid claim starting at 30 days outstanding.

Our AR Follow-Up Workflow

We systematically analyze, prioritize, and pursue unpaid balances to accelerate your cash flows.

1. AR Aging Analysis

Grouping outstanding claims into aging buckets (30, 60, 90, 120+ days) to organize follow-up workflows.

2. High-Value Prioritization

Prioritizing high-dollar, aging claims first to secure major outstanding collections and boost practice liquidity.

3. Payer Status Tracking

Automated and manual checks of payer portals to identify "in-process", "pending information", or "suspended" claims.

4. Direct Payer Contact

Making direct phone calls to payer representatives to resolve pending audits and secure immediate claim adjudication.

5. Old-AR Recovery

Dedicated projects targeting aging backlogs (90+ days outstanding) to clean up old accounts and recover forgotten revenue.

6. Payer Performance Reports

Monthly analytics outlining collection rates, average collection cycles, and denial reasons by insurance carrier.

Why Relentless AR Follow-Up is Necessary

Without a systematic method for tracking outstanding claims, revenue stays trapped. Insurance carriers profit when claims are delayed past their timely filing limits, which can be as short as 90 days from the encounter date.

MSRCM prevents this by actively tracking your accounts receivable. Our RCM representatives call payer phone numbers, appeal underpayments, and resubmit rejected claims daily, accelerating cash flow and keeping your days in AR low.

Outcomes with MSRCM

  • Average days in A/R reduced below 35 days
  • Relentless follow-up starting at 30 days outstanding
  • Structured project focus on historical high-aging backlogs

AR Follow-Up FAQs

Days in Accounts Receivable (A/R) is a metric that measures the average number of days it takes for a practice to collect payments owed by insurers and patients. A lower number indicates faster cash flow, while a higher number indicates bottlenecks in claim submission, posting, or follow-up.
We reduce outstanding A/R by organizing claims into aging buckets (e.g. 30, 60, 90, 120+ days) and prioritizing high-dollar, aging claims. Our specialists actively call insurance companies, resolve pending audits, submit corrected documents, and re-file claims before timely filing limits.
