01
Claims submission
Coded, scrubbed, and submitted within one business day. Clean-claim rate above 98% with front-end edits catching problems before payers ever see them.
Revenue cycle, quietly handled.
Cleaner claims. Faster reimbursements.
Meridian is the billing partner for independent practices that want fewer denials, a healthier A/R, and a clear-eyed view of where the money actually is — without hiring another full-time coder.
Services
Built around the full revenue cycle.
Four disciplines, one team, one dashboard. We handle the operational grind so your clinical staff can stay clinical.
02
Denial management
Every denial is worked, not just logged. We appeal what should be appealed, and feed the root causes back into your intake so the same denial doesn't reappear next month.
03
Practice analytics
A monthly financial read-out in plain English: collections by payer, aging buckets, the three procedures moving your margin, and where days-in-A/R are drifting.
04
Patient billing
Patient-friendly statements, a self-service portal, and a live phone line staffed by humans who can read an EOB. Fewer angry calls to your front desk.
From a practice we work with
“Our days-in-A/R dropped from 52 to 31 in the first quarter with Meridian, and I finally understand our numbers when the report lands. They act like a partner, not a vendor.”
