Being aware of the TFL

We are a medical billing company that proactively works towards avoiding AR pile up. The Timely Filing Limit which is considered as one of the main reasons for AR pile -up varies from one payer to another. We learn the pre-determined TFL of the payer and submit claims accordingly
Timely filing of Appeal
A denied claim needs to be carefully assessed by the account receivables professional. It is important to file an appeal within 7 days of receipt of denial notice from the payer. We watch it on time when it comes to re-filing of appeals, in order to crunch down on ageing AR.
ATB, AR Report and EDI:
Using an EDI report allows us to easily track the change in the status of the reports. The ATB (Aged Trial Balance) report throws a lot of light on the outstanding amount due and the AR Report enables the accounts receivable professional to contain the DRO (Days in Receivables Outstanding) within the 60 and 90 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is old AR or legacy AR in medical billing?

Old AR is the unpaid balance on claims that have gone past the 90-day mark without payment. The usual causes are a denial nobody worked, a payer that never responded, or a claim that stalled after a rejection. These accounts lose value every month they sit, because each one moves closer to the payer’s timely filing or appeal deadline.

How does legacy AR cleanup recover revenue?

Each aged account gets reviewed against the payer’s last response and sent down one path: follow up with the insurer for status, correct and resubmit, appeal the denial, or write off if the filing and appeal windows have closed. Our team starts with the oldest and highest balances and tracks status changes through EDI reports, so the aged balance drops as claims get resolved instead of aging further.

Why do old medical claims stay unpaid?

Often the claim missed the payer’s timely filing limit, which differs from one payer to the next. Others were denied for missing authorization (CO-197), a duplicate claim (CO-18), medical necessity (CO-50) or missing information (CO-16), and nobody appealed or corrected them. Many were simply never followed up with the insurer after submission. Once the account history shows which of these happened, the next step is clear.

Can we outsource old AR and legacy AR cleanup to QWay Healthcare?

Yes. We take on follow-up with insurers, denial investigation, appeals, recovery of backlogged claims and monthly reporting. A dedicated project manager is your single point of contact, so your in-house team can stay on current claims while we work the backlog.

How do you measure whether a legacy AR cleanup worked?

We compare the ATB (Aged Trial Balance) report before and after the project, looking at the share of AR sitting past 90 days and your days in AR. We also report the amount collected against the balance worked, split by payer and aging bucket, in the monthly report. That shows which payers and denial types are still producing aged claims.
