What California Billing Laws Does Transcure Medical Billing Services Handle?

Transcure handles most of the complex healthcare billing regulations in California. Our billing specialists stay up to date on every legislative update so your practice stays profitable.

AB 72 (Surprise Billing Protection Act)

AB 72 prohibits out-of-network providers from balance-billing patients beyond in-network cost-sharing for services at in-network facilities. Transcure makes sure that every claim submitted by your out-of-network providers correctly adheres to IDR processes and the payment standard benchmarks defined under AB 72 and DMHC guidance. 

Medi-Cal Billing Compliance (DHCS)

California's Medi-Cal program, administered by DHCS, requires strict adherence to Medi-Cal billing manuals, correct NPI usage, and timely filing limits. Our dedicated Medi-Cal billing team handles eligibility verification through MEVS, manages TAR/PA submissions, and appeals denials under California Welfare & Institutions Code Section 14000 et seq.

Department of Managed Health Care Regulations

DMHC enforces network adequacy, timely payment standards, and grievance resolution timelines for HMO and managed care plans. Our medical billing services in California track payer-specific DMHC filing rules and monitor Anthem, Blue Shield of CA, Health Net, and Kaiser payment timelines to enforce California's 30 to 45-day prompt-pay laws.

California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act

CMIA imposes stricter data privacy rules than HIPAA for California patients' medical information. Transcure's HIPAA- and CMIA-compliant billing infrastructure makes sure that PHI is protected throughout the revenue cycle, with audit-ready documentation controls and staff training protocols.
