Critical RCM Challenges We Solve

Prior Authorization Complexity

High-value tests need prior authorizations. Our team at TransLabs manages the entire process including tracking, submitting, aggressive follow-up and documentation.

Review of Policy Benefits and Limitations

Prior to claim submission, we thoroughly verify coverage, identify what isn’t covered, check for frequency limitations or restrictions and review secondary insurance as well.

Timely Filing Deadlines

Miss a payer’s filing deadline and claims become uncollectible. We submit claims within days of test completion, track filing deadlines meticulously, and escalate delayed claims.

Coordination of Benefits

Patients with multiple insurance policies create complexity in determining primary payers, secondary billing, and proper coordination. Our system manages COB automatically, ensuring  proper sequence.

Payor Policy Changes

Insurance carriers constantly modify coverage policies, coding requirements, and billing procedures. Our team monitors policy changes continuously to maintain compliance.

Underpayment Detection

Many laboratories fail to identify when payers reimburse below contracted rates. We compare every payment to contracted amounts, identifying underpayments and recovering missing revenue.

Patient Collection Challenges

Collecting from patients is increasingly difficult as high-deductible plans shift costs to consumers. Our patient engagement strategies significantly improve collection rates.

Staff Turnover and Training

Billing staff turnover disrupts operations and requires constant training investment. Outsourcing to TransLabs eliminates these concerns entirely, providing consistent expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in laboratory revenue cycle management services?

Laboratory RCM services encompass the complete financial process from patient registration through final payment collection. This includes insurance verification, prior authorization management, medical coding by certified specialists, claims submission, payment posting, denial management, appeals, patient billing, collections, and comprehensive reporting. 

Most laboratories see measurable improvements within 30-60 days. Initial gains typically include increased clean claims rates, reduced claim rejections, and faster payment cycles. More substantial improvements in denial rates, AR days, and overall revenue become evident within 90-120 days as we work through your existing AR backlog and implement systematic process improvements. Our clients average 28% revenue increases within the first year.

No. TransLabs operates as an extension of your team, not a replacement for your oversight. You maintain complete visibility through our real-time portal, receive regular performance reports, and have direct access to your dedicated account manager and billing specialists. You approve major decisions, review reports, and maintain final authority over your revenue cycle. The difference is you gain expert support without the administrative burden.

In-house laboratory billing typically costs 8-12% of collections when you account for staff salaries, benefits, software licensing, training, turnover, overhead, and hidden costs. TransLabs charges 4-7% of collections with no additional fees, often resulting in lower total costs while delivering superior results. Additionally, improved collection rates and reduced denials typically generate revenue increases that far exceed any fee differential.

No. TransLabs integrates with your existing LIS regardless of vendor or system. We have successful integrations with all major laboratory systems including EPIC Beaker, Sunquest, Cerner, Soft Computer, Psyche Systems, CoPath, PowerPath, and many others. Our integration team works directly with your LIS vendor to establish seamless data exchange without requiring you to change systems.

Cytogenetics Laboratory Manager
Before TransLabs, our FISH and karyotype claims were a constant struggle with denials and underpayments. Their coders actually understand probe configurations, complexity levels, and when to use 88271 versus 88275. Our cytogenetics revenue increased 34% in the first year.
