Which Florida Practices Use Transcure's Medical Billing Services?

Why Do Florida Practices Lose Revenue Without Specialized Medical Billing Services?
Florida practices lose revenue to state billing duties, fragmented Medicaid plans and short payer windows. Each rule below sits on top of federal Medicare and No Surprises Act requirements. Missing one turns a payable claim into a write-off or a recoupment. A medical billing audit for Florida practices shows which of these four costs your practice most:
Itemized Billing Duties Under § 458.323 and § 459.012
Florida MDs and DOs must send an itemized statement on request by the next billing cycle. Practices cannot demand payment first. Vague charge lines like "miscellaneous" fail the Board of Medicine rule.
Medicaid Managed Care Under SMMC 3.0
AHCA moved most Florida Medicaid enrollees into SMMC 3.0 plans on February 1, 2025. Each plan sets its own prior authorization rules and portal. One practice may bill five plans five different ways.
Six-Month Filing Windows and 12-Month Recoupment Risk
Florida gives providers six months to file with the primary HMO and 90 days for secondary claims. Payers can request physician overpayments for 12 months. Late filings and missed audit replies both cost revenue.
Good Faith Estimates Under § 456.0575
On request, practitioners must give a written estimate within 7 business days for nonemergency care in a licensed facility. Missing it brings discipline and a $500 daily fine, capped at $5,000.
What Medical Billing Services Does Transcure Offer Florida Practices?
Transcure offers full revenue cycle billing services for Florida practices, from eligibility checks to A/R recovery. Each step follows Florida payer rules and AHCA Medicaid requirements:
Pre-Visit Insurance Eligibility Verification
ELIXA checks active coverage across Florida Blue, Humana and major Medicare Advantage plans before each visit. Coverage gaps surface at the front desk, not after the claim denies.
Out-of-State Coverage for Snowbird Patients
ELIXA verifies home-state Medicare Advantage, Blue and commercial plans before seasonal visits. Our team sets the primary and secondary order, so each claim reaches the right plan first.
Prior Authorization Approval Tracking
PRIA files and tracks approvals with Florida Medicaid MCOs and Medicare Advantage plans. Procedures go ahead with authorization on file, so payers have no reason to deny them later.
Medical Necessity Documentation Review
Our billers check documentation against Florida Medicaid plan policies and each commercial payer’s medical necessity criteria. Claims missing support are held and fixed before they reach the payer.
AAPC-Certified Specialty Medical Coding
CODIN and AAPC-certified coders match ICD-10, CPT and HCPCS codes to each provider note. Modifier and bundling errors are caught and corrected before submission across 40+ specialties.
Error-Free Fee Schedule Charge Entry
Every charge is entered against the related Florida payer fee schedules, units and modifier rules. Mismatched charges are flagged and fixed before they turn into underpayments or denials.
Scrubbed Clean Claim Submission
Claims are scrubbed against CMS and NCCI edits plus Florida payer rules. Medicare Part B claims go to First Coast Service Options, Florida’s Medicare contractor. Each claim is filed well inside its payer’s deadline
Daily ERA & EOB Payment Posting
ERA and EOB payments are posted daily and reconciled line by line against each remittance. Underpaid lines are caught early and appealed against the contracted rate to recover any potential loss.
Regular Aging Bucket A/R Follow-Up
We work unpaid claims by payer and aging bucket, starting with claims closest to their deadlines. Medicare Advantage and Medicaid MCO balances are chased well before payer windows close.
24-Hour Root-Cause Denial Management
DEXA finds the root cause behind each denial before anything is resubmitted. Our team corrects and refiles the claim within 24 hours, then fixes the upstream error to collect maximum payments from payers.

How Do Transcure's Billing Services Handle Florida's Balance Billing Law?
Transcure bills the health plan, not the patient, on every claim covered by § 627.64194. This law matters most for out-of-network groups working inside in-network facilities. Emergency, anesthesia, radiology and hospitalist practices feel it most.
Under the statute, the insurer alone owes the out-of-network provider for covered emergency services. The patient pays only in-network copays, coinsurance and deductibles. The same rule covers nonemergency care at an in-network facility when the patient could not choose a participating provider. HMO members get matching protection under § 641.513.
Payment disputes go to court or to Florida’s voluntary dispute resolution program under § 408.7057. Self-funded employer plans fall outside state law. Those claims follow the federal No Surprises Act and its federal IDR process.
Transcure confirms network status and plan type before each claim goes out. We apply the correct cost-sharing amount and route each dispute to the right forum. Your practice gets paid without sending prohibited balance bills.

Transcure serves practices in all 67 Florida counties from its local office in Oviedo, Seminole County. Payer mix varies sharply by county.

How Did Transcure's Billing Services Cut A/R in Half for an Orlando Internal Medicine Practice?
Orlando Internal Medicine Center is an adult primary care practice in Orlando led by Dr. Azhar Chaudhry. The practice faced low collections and a rising A/R balance. Credentialing was still open with key payers, and in-office ultrasounds needed authorizations before each scan.
Transcure took over the full revenue cycle, working aged receivables payer by payer. Our team completed credentialing with key payers and is finalizing the remaining enrollments. We also set up prior authorization for every in-office ultrasound. Those claims are now approved before the scan, not denied after it.
The gross collection rate rose from 33.43% in January to 49.68% in July 2026. Total A/R fell from $123.4K in March to $60.2K by October 2026, a reduction of roughly 51%. Over six months, the practice collected $289K against $532K in charges, a 54% gross collection rate. That figure includes old balances recovered on top of current billing.
Medical Director, Orlando Internal Medicine Center
“Our receivables kept climbing, and ultrasound authorizations were slowing down our schedule. Since Transcure took over, our A/R has dropped by half and collections keep improving. They also handled our credentialing, so I can focus on patients instead of payers.”
Why Do Florida Practices Choose Transcure as Their Medical Billing Company?
Florida practices choose Transcure for local presence, payer-specific billing and proof in their own market. These six attributes set our Florida billing team apart:
Billing Florida Practices Since 2002, From Oviedo
Our Florida office sits in Oviedo and serves practices statewide. Transcure has billed for physicians since 2002, so your claims run on more than two decades of payer history.
98% First-Pass Rate on Florida Blue and Humana Claims
Our billers know Florida Blue, Humana and Medicare Advantage edits plan by plan. That knowledge holds first-pass clean claims at 98%.
Medicare Advantage Authorizations Tracked by Plan
Nearly 6 in 10 Florida Medicare enrollees were in MA plans in January 2026, per CMS enrollment data. PRIA tracks each plan's authorization list, so procedures are approved before the visit.
AHCA Medicaid MCO Billing Under SMMC 3.0
Our team bills Sunshine Health and other SMMC 3.0 plans every day. Each plan's edits and portal rules are built into our workflow.
AI Agents Backed by Certified Billers

Live Reporting Across Every Florida Payer

How Much Can Florida Practices Save by Outsourcing Medical Billing to Transcure?
Outsourcing to Transcure can save a Florida practice $125,000 or more each year. Florida medical records specialists earn a mean annual wage of $50,230, per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. A lean team of a biller, a coder and an A/R specialist costs $150,000+ in wages alone. Benefits, software, training and turnover come on top.
Transcure charges 5% of collections, with end-to-end RCM, credentialing and old A/R recovery included. A Florida practice collecting $500,000 a year pays Transcure $25,000. That frees $125,000+ compared with an in-house team, before counting collection gains.

What Do Florida Medical Practices Say About Transcure's Billing Services?
Florida practices from Daytona Beach to Key West report cleaner A/R and fixed payer problems. Here is what three of them say about working with Transcure:
Psychiatrist
Stillpoint Psychiatry, FL
“Most of our claims sit in the 0-30 day bucket now, which never happened before. Their psychiatry billing services keep our Florida practice tight, and collections rose from 30k to 45k.”
Plastic Surgeon
AmjadPlastics, FL
“Medicare and Medicaid enrollment issues were holding up everything. Transcure resolved the requirements, tightened claim submission and follow-up, and our Florida plastic surgery billing finally moves at a normal pace.”
Obstetrician-Gynecologist
Womankind, FL
“Injection codes were simply not paying, and Medicaid and Sunshine were underreimbursing. Transcure fixed the coding, set a proper SOP, and our Florida OBGYN billing collects on those claims.”
Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Billing Services in Florida
Florida providers ask us most about balance billing, Medicaid plans and payer deadlines. These answers cover the state rules behind them.
How Does Florida's Balance Billing Law Limit What Out-of-Network Providers Collect?
Section 627.64194 makes the insurer solely liable for covered emergency services from out-of-network providers. Patients owe only their in-network copay, coinsurance and deductible. The rule extends to nonemergency care at in-network facilities when patients cannot choose their provider. Payment disputes go to court or to Florida’s voluntary dispute program under § 408.7057.
How Does Transcure Bill Snowbird Patients Who Carry Out-of-State Insurance?
Snowbird season brings Medicare Advantage, Blue plans and commercial policies issued in other states. Transcure verifies coverage in all 50 states before the visit. We confirm primary and secondary payers, then route each claim to the correct plan. Your practice avoids the wrong-payer denials common with seasonal patients.
Why Do Florida Practices Choose Transcure for Medical Billing Services?
Practices pick Transcure for a local Oviedo team and billing experience dating back to 2002. Our billers hold a 98% first-pass clean claim rate on Florida Blue, Humana and MA claims. Seven AI agents with human review cover eligibility through denials. Pricing is a flat 5% of collections.
When Must a Florida Physician Provide a Good Faith Estimate?
A patient’s request triggers the duty under § 456.0575 before nonemergency care in a licensed facility. The physician must deliver a written estimate within 7 business days. Missing that deadline without good cause brings discipline and a $500 daily fine, capped at $5,000. Uninsured patients also hold separate federal estimate rights.
How Long Can Florida Insurers Seek Overpayments From Physicians?
Twelve months after paying a claim is the limit for state-regulated insurers and HMOs. The same window covers DOs, podiatrists, chiropractors and dentists. SB 944 added psychologists for services on or after January 1, 2026. Practices offering behavioral health now track both provider groups against the same 12-month clock.
What Happens When a Florida Insurer Misses the Prompt Pay Deadline?
Late payments start earning 12% simple annual interest from the date the claim should have been paid. Payers must pay, deny or contest clean claims within 20 days electronic or 40 days paper. An HMO that neither pays nor denies within 120 days owes the claim outright. Transcure tracks each window and claims the interest owed.
How Long Do Florida Practices Have to Submit Claims?
Six months from the date of service is the HMO filing limit for the primary plan under § 641.3155. Secondary claims follow within 90 days of the primary decision. Florida Medicaid fee-for-service allows 12 months, while each SMMC plan sets its own window. Transcure files within days of service to stay inside each deadline.
