Overview: Seven to over ten percent of your practice's revenue is being lost if your medical billing service is not systematically comparing your insurance payments to the amounts allowed in your payer contracts. Any competent medical claims billing service should offer this feature as part of their standard service.

Pursuing underpayments is the focus of this paper.
