Family Practice Billing
Family practice billing is unique because a physician regularly sees patients of all different age groups with different common ailments, and several patients in the same family unit may be billed to the same provider. In this way, family practice billing can actually simplify the billing process despite an increased number of patients and cases.
How Does Family Practice Billing Work?
Like other specialties, family practice billing relies on proper and timely documentation and communication with individuals and insurers. Your clinic starts the process by serving a patient and documenting the normal SOAP notes. A medical coding specialist translates the visit into the appropriate numerical codes that allow for easier communication with providers. The documentation that leads to coding also improves the analysis of services (charges and procedures) to improve your practice management.
If you choose to work with JS Medical Billing, we can help with practice management and coding, as well as billing. While maintaining HIPAA compliance and any other state or federal regulations, we bill insurance providers and patients. You can rely on us for proper collections and billing maintenance, saving you time and hassle on the follow-up process, all while increasing your revenue.
Family Practice Billing Software
Family practice billing software can help from the point of scheduling, through note documentation, and into billing. However, the software still requires time investment. Depending on the software’s level of detail and the number of tasks it carries out, you’ll need a bigger team to handle it.

A software program is just a tool, but JS Medical Billing specialists understand how to use the Kareo tool to its fullest.
