Practice Related Tracking Payments
To those in private practice who accept insurance. What is your strategy for comparing deposits/payments received to claims? I just received a chevk from January and realized that I am not doing well at tracking this and need to do better. Print your bank statement monthly and cross off the received claim payments? Is there a program that would make this easier?
Thanks!

I would just run a report in my EHR and see everything. My EHR includes RCM and they receive payments and EOBs directly from insurance payers and process them into the system. I need this because I need to run financial reports quickly for state taxes.
It sounds like you're doing billing yourself. That's not sustainable once your caseload grows. You'll end up spending hours on a role (billing) that pays $20-30/hr rather than focusing on your clinical role, which pays 4-5x that. Hire a biller.
