Revenue Cycle Management That Drives Collections

Revenue cycle management includes the financial and administrative processes that move a patient encounter from scheduling to final payment. Persistex coordinates insurance verification, prior authorizations, certified coding, claim submission, payment posting, denial management, accounts receivable follow-up, fee schedule review, and financial reporting. Managing these functions as one connected workflow helps practices identify revenue leakage, resolve issues earlier, and maintain clearer visibility into collections.

Medical billing is a core part of revenue cycle management, primarily focused on submitting claims, posting payments, and following up on unpaid balances. RCM is broader: it also addresses front-end processes such as eligibility verification and authorizations, coding accuracy, fee schedules, denial prevention, reporting, and accounts receivable strategy. This full-cycle view helps identify where revenue is being delayed or lost before it becomes an aging claim.

Persistex supports behavioral health, TMS therapy, psychiatry, family medicine, internal medicine, primary care, pediatrics, chiropractic, and podiatry practices. The team applies specialty-specific knowledge to common billing challenges, including psychotherapy session limits, TMS CPT codes, E/M coding, preventive and vaccine billing, chiropractic modifier requirements, and routine foot care coverage rules. This focused approach helps practices submit claims aligned with payer and documentation requirements.

Persistex helps reduce denials by verifying insurance information, managing required authorizations, reviewing coding and documentation, and monitoring payer-specific requirements before and after submission. When a denial occurs, the team analyzes its cause, corrects eligible claims, and pursues appeals rather than letting balances sit unresolved. Persistex reports a 98% clean claim rate and a 72% appeals success rate across clients.

Yes. Persistex integrates with major EHR and practice management platforms, including AdvancedMD, Kareo, athenahealth, DrChrono, and TherapyNotes, among others. During onboarding, the team reviews your current workflow and system configuration to establish secure, practical processes for billing, coding, claim status, and reporting. The goal is to create continuity without requiring your practice to abandon a system that already supports operations.

Practices commonly see measurable improvements within 30 to 60 days of onboarding, depending on claim volume, existing accounts receivable, payer mix, and the condition of current workflows. Early work often focuses on urgent denials, aging balances, authorization gaps, and coding issues. More durable improvements come from consistently managing front-end checks, clean claim submission, payment posting, and disciplined follow-up over subsequent billing cycles.

No. Persistex offers flexible percentage-based or flat-rate pricing models based on a practice’s size and billing volume, without hidden fees or long-term contract requirements. This structure lets practices choose an arrangement that fits their operational needs while maintaining visibility into service performance. The team’s success is tied to improving the practice’s collections, rather than locking clients into an inflexible agreement.

A free RCM audit provides a no-obligation assessment of your current revenue cycle, including billing workflow review, denial pattern analysis, and identification of revenue opportunities. Persistex uses the findings to outline areas of leakage and develop a custom optimization roadmap.
