ASC Contract Negotiation

Payer contract negotiations, evaluation and renegotiations is very critical to every practice, yet many practices only set up their managed contracts one time and allow them to automatically renew without any negotiations. Most Ambulatory Surgery Centers lose additional revenue of 10-30 percent because they do not have the time or the required expertise to renegotiate contracts with insurance payers.

Global Health Management Services are experts in managed care contract negotiations. We perform a contract analysis of your ASC managed care negotiation process, evaluating each contract and devising a contract negotiation and renewal strategy for your Ambulatory Surgery Center by using leverage points to maximize normal contract terms, resulting in significant revenue increases for our ASC clients.

“Until 2009, my practice had in-house billing by a non-certified coder. Plans were underway to have a new medical office and ambulatory surgery center constructed. I hired a consultant for the practice and I soon realized that the office was not only coding improperly, but under-billing as well.

The consultant recommended Global Health Management Services. I contacted them and they made a 2 1/2 hour drive down to meet with me. I was extremely impressed with their knowledge, professionalism, and willingness to help improve the revenue for my practice.

They were hired and within several months, I saw a complete turnaround in our total revenue.

Global Health also helped with the tedious task of negotiating contracts with health insurers for my new ASC.

They are all experts in their field and their goal is to make sure you succeed in receiving the maximum reimbursements.

Global Health is family owned and run, and they treat you as part of their family. I have nothing but high regards for them and highly recommend Global Health for any medical practice.”
