Healthcare out-of-network revenue recovery

market profile

  • text: No Surprises Act disputes require eligibility review, negotiation and evidence, making recovery difficult for small practice billing teams.
  • text: Clearest combines claim review, dispute preparation and payment follow-up alongside a practice's existing biller.

personas

  • title: Independent specialty practice owner
    pains:
    • Out-of-network payments may be lower than expected and difficult to investigate
    • Staff have limited time to pursue complex payer disputes
  • title: Practice administrator or revenue cycle director
    pains:
    • Eligibility and deadlines vary by claim and require close tracking
    • Dispute evidence and payer follow-up compete with daily billing work
  • title: Medical billing or RCM partner leader
    pains:
    • Clients write off potential underpayments because specialized dispute capacity is missing
    • Handoffs and reconciliation require clear ownership
