What makes Great Falls claims submission & scrubbing different from a national billing company?
Great Falls billing runs on Montana payers — Blue Cross Blue Shield of Montana — dominant commercial carrier and third-party administrator for Montana Medicaid State Plan claims, Montana Medicaid (administered by Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services) — expanded coverage population; work requirements scheduled for implementation July 2026, Medicare and Medicare Advantage — 17 MA plans available in Cascade County in 2026, with Humana and BCBSMT among leading carriers, and Texas Medicaid managed care — and on the specialties concentrated around 26th Street South Corridor — home to Benefis Health System's main campus, Sletten Cancer Institute, and Peace Hospice of Montana. We tune claims submission & scrubbing to those rules instead of a one-size-fits-all template.
Which Great Falls payers do you work with?

Can FYNQ work with our existing Great Falls EHR or practice-management system?
Yes. We work inside your current system, so your Great Falls practice does not have to switch software to start claims submission & scrubbing.
Do you handle Texas Medicaid (STAR / STAR+PLUS) coding and claims?

How does Texas not expanding Medicaid affect billing for Great Falls practices?
Texas has not expanded Medicaid and carries one of the highest uninsured rates in the country, so Great Falls practices see more self-pay and charity-care work. Clean coding and clear patient billing matter more here than in expansion states.

Yes. The Great Falls market is specialty-dense — oncology, cardiology, and more — and our claims submission & scrubbing is set up for specialty code sets, modifiers, and prior authorization.
Is FYNQ HIPAA-aware?
Yes. FYNQ uses HIPAA-aware workflows. Our public website never collects patient health information (PHI); we work with practices, not patients.
