Dermatology Billing Guides
Practical guides to the revenue cycle decisions dermatology practices face — staffing the billing function, evaluating and changing partners, finding where revenue leaks, and measuring what matters.
Guides in this series

EHR billing vs RCM partner
When the billing module inside ModMed, Nextech or eCW is enough, and when it is not.
Choosing a billing company
How to evaluate dermatology billing companies: the criteria that predict collections, and the questions that expose a generalist.
Decisions, not sales pages
These guides cover the choices a dermatology practice actually makes about its revenue cycle: whether to keep billing in-house, how to evaluate a partner, how to change one safely, and how to tell from your own reports whether any of it is working.
They are written to be useful whether or not you ever engage us. Where a model or a metric is genuinely a matter of practice profile rather than a right answer, we say so.
Frequently asked questions
Do these guides apply to single-provider practices?
Yes, though the in-house comparison lands differently at that size — a simple single-provider payer mix is one of the profiles where in-house billing often still makes sense.
Can you review our numbers against these benchmarks?
Yes. A free claims audit reviews a de-identified sample and returns a line-item findings report, whether or not you work with us afterwards.
