Remote Unified Health Services Jobs

Each year millions of workers are injured on the job and require medical attention. Since worker's compensation is an employee benefit governed by individual states, there are significant and varying rules and regulations involved in processing claims and obtaining reimbursements. Normal billing patterns in healthcare can't be applied to work comp because the nature of processing claims and the payer system is fundamentally different. This unique payor class lacks eligibility systems and invoicing remains a print and mail system burdened by "attachments"​. The collection process includes phone calls, high invoice submission rates and payment appeals. Finally, reimbursement rates differ by jurisdiction and providers don't know if payments are correct or not.UHS specializes in end to end management of worker's compensation claims for hospitals, surgery centers, and healthcare systems.
