If your Yonkers practice is losing time to denials, underpayments or aging A/R, The Medical Billing can take over billing and coding end to end. We work with physicians, specialty groups and labs across Westchester County, New York.
Medical Billing for Yonkers's Healthcare Market
Healthcare in Yonkers is anchored by St. John's Riverside Hospital and Westchester Medical Center in nearby Valhalla. Independent practices here refer to — and receive referrals from — those systems every day, which means accurate referring-provider data, prior authorizations and place-of-service coding are essential to getting paid. We set up those details correctly at charge entry instead of fixing them after a denial.
New York Payer Rules We Handle for Yonkers Practices
- Medicare: Part B claims go to National Government Services (NGS); Medicare Advantage claims go to the patient's private plan with its own authorization rules.
- Medicaid: New York Medicaid is run by the New York State Department of Health through eMedNY, and most members are in Medicaid managed care plans such as Fidelis Care, Healthfirst and MetroPlusHealth.
- Commercial plans: we bill Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield (formerly Empire), Excellus BlueCross BlueShield, EmblemHealth and MVP Health Care and the employer plans common in Westchester County.
- Local detail: New York is divided into several Medicare payment localities (Manhattan, the NYC suburbs and Long Island, Queens and the rest of the state), so expected payments differ by location.
