Consulting Services

Viscent will work with physicians, administration and staff to determine what business strategies will benefit your practice the most. A thorough analysis of patient load, surgical volume and types of cases, payer mix, prescribing habits, treatment plans and staff responsibilities will help us develop a unique practice plan for growth and a potential revenue forecast. Plus, leveraging our experience in tax, finance, regulatory and operational issues, we’re able to provide our clients with the most comprehensive guidance available.

Improved Billing Practices

Efficiencies are contingent on the submission and timely reimbursement of clean claims. Viscent will analyze your billing practices to determine what improvements have the power to make your practice more efficient and effective. Depending on your unique needs, we will work with you to implement the right billing approach, such as:

  • Stock-and-Bill Programs Concerned about the limited flexibility and billing challenges of traditional O&P models that require providers to seek in-network providers and inconvenience patients with an extra trip to the medical office? Stock-and-bill may be your answer. You can dispense products at the time of a patient’s visit from an exclusive Viscent inventory and Viscent will handle the billing third party payers for the products. Viscent’s proprietary software enables our clients to get a stock-and-bill program running immediately – managing inventory and seeing increased efficiencies.
  • Outsourced Billing Services Want to select and stock your own inventory but don’t have the staff resources or expertise to implement the sophisticated billing system to go with it? Viscent can handle it for you. We bill all DME products under your tax ID# on your behalf and reimbursement is sent directly to your office.
