Healthcare Services Quality Standards

Telkin follows a series of steps to ensure high standards of quality in all our healthcare outsourcing services.

We review all claims before submitting them

To minimize error rates and reduce the risk of denials, the supervisor or team leader reviews all claims before submission.

We maintain a review log for billing and coding claims

The most common reasons for claims rejections are specified in a log list compiled by our billing staff. With the help of this ready reference, we track trends on remittance advice. We monitor and evaluate these trends in order to resolve the problems that are causing the denials and rejections for your practice. This way, you get increased revenue through reimbursements and reduce the risk of future claims rejections.

Monthly Billing Review

Every month, we hold billing review meetings where the entire team involved in billing processes is present. Every person involved in data entry, billing and payment posting, coding and documentation, denials review and down coding participates in the monthly review which includes

An analysis of trends from the claims review log
an update of any recent changes in billing or coding practices, from recent newsletters of insurance carriers
current practice issues regarding the billing function

Some comments about outsourcing

‘If you deprive yourself of outsourcing and your competitors do not, you’re putting yourself out of business.” Lee Kuan Yew

"Outsourcing and globalization allows companies to reduce costs, benefits consumers with lower cost goods and services, causes economic expansion that reduces unemployment, and increases productivity and job creation." Larry Elder

"This is a very exciting time in the world of information. It's not just that the personal computer has come along as a great tool. The whole pace of business is moving faster. Globalization is forcing companies to do things in new ways." Bill Gates

"Accordingly, globalization is not only something that will concern and threaten us in the future, but something that is taking place in the present and to which we must first open our eyes." Ulrich Beck

"Globalization has changed us into a company that searches the world, not just to sell or to source, but to find intellectual capital - the world's best talents and greatest ideas." Jack Welch

“Globalization is not something we can hold off or turn off….. it is the economic equivalent of a force of nature, like wind or water.” Bill Clinton
