Why denials are your biggest revenue leak

Why denials are your biggest revenue leak

Every denied claim represents revenue your practice already earned but hasn't collected. The majority of denials — up to 86% according to MGMA research — are preventable with proper pre-submission scrubbing and coding accuracy. Of the denials that do get through, 54% can be successfully overturned on appeal (AHA). But only if someone actually files the appeal before the timely-filing window closes. Most in-house billing teams don't have time. ImmediCare does.

Claims reviewed against payer-specific edits before submission. Errors caught before they become denials.

Direct follow-up with payers by phone and portal. Nothing sits unworked past 30 days.

Common questions

Denial management FAQs

What are the most common reasons for claim denial?
The most common reasons are incorrect patient information, eligibility issues, coding errors (ICD-10/CPT mismatches), missing prior authorisation, and timely filing violations. ImmediCare addresses all of these systematically.
How long does an appeal take?
Timeline varies by payer — commercial payers typically respond within 30–45 days; Medicare appeals can take 60–90 days at the first level. We track every appeal and escalate when payers exceed their response windows.
What if a claim is ultimately uncollectible?
We'll tell you honestly — and early. Some claims age past the point of recovery. Our job is to catch them before that happens and maximise what's still recoverable.
