Why Choose Account Receivable Solutions?

ARS currently has OPR members as clients, and understands needs of their clients with regards to handling their patients in a compassionate, respectful manner. It is often said by those whom they've helped to settle their debts, that they truly appreciate their courtesy and willingness to help their situation.  Their approach is of the physician office perspective with the knowledge that the physician has already endured the out-of-pocket cost.

 

ARS has concentrated their resources on client service, and as a result they have grown almost exclusively through client referrals and expanded portfolios from their medical clients. ARS's goal has been to develop long-term quality partnerships by clearly identifying each client's specific needs and requirements, and meeting or exceeding them every day. As their references will attest, this approach to service has been a tremendous advantage to them.

Please consider these attributes when making your decision:

-Collectively over 250 years of collection experience

-Dedicated to humanitarian image

-Accredited with numerous medical groups: HFMA, MMBA, MMGMA, MPAA

-Focused on the patient account billing and bad debt collections

-Technology and strong focus on protecting health care information
