Entering patient demographics is a critical step in avoiding a lot of backtracking and errors during the claims processing process. The data captured in the demographic entry process from the base for the medical record affects not only the medical record but also the payment of insurance claims. Error-free patient data capture is critical for claim submission and expedited claim processing by insurers.

The main purpose of demographic entry is to create an account and key in the data into the software – PMS (Practice Management System).

After the above information is keyed into the system, the patient account number is generated, which is used by all the medical billing departments.

Increased claim denials and delayed payments: This will cause rework as the clearing house systems and the payer claims adjudication platforms may reject the claims. As a result, delays in obtaining payment on account of unpaid claims can occur.

In addition to eliminating rework, accurate patient data entry ensures prompt reimbursements and decreases the number of days in accounts receivable. Our demographics team receives training to spot errors in the patient registration process and work collaboratively with our clients.
