Agencies Achieve Higher Clean Claim Rates With Our EHR Software Tools 

A claim rate is the percentage of insurance claims submitted by a provider that are accepted and processed without errors. This rate typically represents the efficiency of your medical billing software. Having high clean claim rates signifies efficient billing processes, resulting in reduced administrative burdens and improved financial stability for your agency. Lower rates suggest issues such as claim denials, rejections, or delays in the reimbursement process, which negatively impact your agency's bottom line.
