What makes Columbus claims submission & scrubbing different from a national billing company?
Columbus billing runs on Ohio payers — Medicare and Medicare Advantage, Ohio Medicaid (Next Generation managed care), Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Ohio), and Texas Medicaid managed care — and on the specialties concentrated around The Ohio State University medical campus / University District (W. 10th Ave corridor). We tune claims submission & scrubbing to those rules instead of a one-size-fits-all template.
