Outsourcing my insurance billing and A/R has been one of the best decisions I have made for my practice. I recently started using a new company called Pedo Billing to help me with this. They have helped me collect thousands of dollars in outstanding claims (including Medicaid claims) that we have been fighting for months to get paid.

Pedo Billing only works with pediatric dentists, so I invited their lead sales associate Nathan Petke to come on the podcast to tell me more about their company. Some things we discuss:

- Why they only work with pediatric dentists

- How they are able to charge 2.5% when the industry standard is 3-3.5%

- Why the old way of submitting claims with paper checks and EOBs is quickly becoming outdated

- How often problem claims should be followed-up on

- The benefits of having a team of experienced billers working on your insurance claims

- How outsourcing frees up time for your staff to focus on scheduling and better patient care
