QuickAddress helps healthcare providers reduce bad debt
In today's competitive managed care marketplace, the need for effective registration and medical billing software to identify, register and bill patients quickly and accurately is greater than ever.
Incorrect patient addresses can be responsible for:

- Inflated levels of bad debt and difficulties in collection
- Delayed or returned medical insurance billing documents
- Inability to meet charity care audits

QAS address data entry software can be used for instant and accurate patient address validation at the registration desk or in the scheduling department.

More benefits for healthcare providers
Improved medical insurance billing and collections
Whether you are seeking co-pays from insured patients, billing self-pay patients, or submitting invoices to insurance companies, accurate postal addresses mean more bills arriving the first time and, more importantly, being paid on time.
Reduction in claim denials based on missing information
Submitting insurance claims online has become common place for most U.S. healthcare providers. Insurance companies expect all information, including patient addresses, to be 100% accurate. Incorrectly spelled or formatted addresses can result in postponed or rejected payments.
CASS certification
In addition to providing automated address cleansing and validation, QAS Batch is CASS Certified and supports Delivery Point Barcodes (DPBCs), which can help qualify your healthcare organization for postal discounts. A DPBC consists of the 9-digit ZIP + 4 code, the last two digits of the primary address or post office box (delivery point) and a single check digit.
Maintain charity care appropriation
Hospital finance executives know that your facility's appropriation is always under review. Broad usage of QAS software gives you the ability to show auditors that you are doing everything in your power to make sure patients receiving charity care funds are indeed state residents.
Straightforward setup and training
QAS works with almost any scheduling or accounts receivable (AR) systems as well as all major Hospital Information Systems (HIS). Meditech, a popular HIS, is fully compatible with QAS software, and QAS already has several Meditech customers. QAS software is easy to use, with the added benefit of quick and simple installation.
* Accurate address validation requires the latest address data. All QAS customers receive regular data updates.
