About Practice Perfect
Your Trusted Medical Billing Company in Ohio
At Practice Perfect, we specialize in delivering professional medical billing services in Ohio for clinics, hospitals, and private practices of all sizes. Our team understands Ohio-specific payer rules, Medicaid regulations, and commercial insurance processes, ensuring that every claim is clean, compliant, and paid faster.
Whether you’re running a small practice or a multi-specialty group, we tailor our solutions to your workflow so you can focus on patient care while we handle the billing complexity.
Ohio Medical Billing: Payers, Medicare and Medicaid
Practices in Ohio bill Ohio Medicaid (delivered largely through managed care plans), Medicare Part B through CGS Administrators (Jurisdiction 15), and commercial plans such as Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, alongside national carriers like Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare and Humana. Each payer has its own enrollment, authorization and claim-edit rules, so a claim that is clean for one payer is often rejected by another.
What we check for Ohio practices before claims are submitted:
- Payer enrollment and credentialing for every provider and location, including Medicaid managed care plans
- Patient eligibility verification at scheduling, because coverage often moves between Medicaid, Medicare Advantage and commercial plans
- Prior authorization requirements by payer and service
- ICD-10, CPT and HCPCS coding and modifier accuracy against current payer policy
Practice Perfect provides outsourced medical billing, coding, credentialing and revenue cycle management for Ohio practices. Every new practice starts with a free billing audit that shows where claims are being denied or delayed.
Ohio Payers We Bill Every Day
Ohio has a large Medicaid program, heavy Medicare Advantage enrollment and strong regional insurers. Our team bills all of them:
- Ohio Medicaid: run by the Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM), with most members enrolled in managed care plans such as Buckeye Health Plan, CareSource, Molina Healthcare, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield and AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio. Children with complex behavioral health needs are served through OhioRISE.
- Original Medicare: Part B claims processed by CGS Administrators, the Medicare Administrative Contractor for Ohio (Jurisdiction 15).
- Medicare Advantage: a large share of Ohio seniors, including Humana, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Anthem and Medical Mutual plans.
- Commercial insurers: Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Medical Mutual of Ohio, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, Paramount and SummaCare.
- Other payers: TRICARE East for military families near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, and workers’ compensation claims through the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC), a state-run system.
Each payer has its own portal, prior authorization list and appeal process. We track them so your claims go out clean the first time.
Ohio Medicaid Billing Rules Practices Should Know
Ohio Medicaid has several rules that catch practices off guard:
- Provider enrollment: every billing and rendering provider must be enrolled with Ohio Medicaid through the Provider Network Management (PNM) system, and each managed care plan has its own credentialing on top of that. See our medical credentialing services.
- Plan changes: members can switch managed care plans, so eligibility should be checked before every visit. See our insurance eligibility verification services.
- Prior authorization: each plan publishes its own list of services that need approval. We confirm requirements before the service through our prior authorization services.
- Timely filing: Ohio Medicaid generally allows claims up to 365 days from the date of service, but managed care plans may set shorter limits in your contract. Check each agreement.
Ohio Prompt-Pay Rules for Commercial Claims
Ohio’s prompt-pay law (Ohio Revised Code 3901.38) generally requires health insurers to pay or deny a clean claim within 30 days for electronic claims and 45 days for paper claims, and late payments can owe interest. Many practices never collect that interest because nobody tracks claim ages against the deadline. Our A/R follow-up flags late-paid claims so you know when a payer is out of compliance.
