🎙️ In this episode, Fred Allen reveals how up to 90–95% of healthcare claim denials can be prevented before they ever happen. He shares the origin story of MediBillMD's pivot from telemedicine to a fully end-to-end RCM solution, their trademark free audit that pinpoints the top denial drivers, and the playbook they use to achieve a 97% clean claim rate on first submission. Plus, Fred outlines the next frontier—data security in the wake of major industry breaches—and even teases MediBillMD's own upcoming EMR platform, with a free pilot for early adopters.
