Payment posting is a crucial step in the medical billing process that involves logging payments into the medical billing software and reconciling posting activities with deposits. It provides a view of insurance payments in EOBs, payments from patients, and insurance checks from ERAs. Payment posting allows medical practices to receive full payment in the most expeditious manner possible. Accurate payment posting is important because it affects accurate billing and a seamless process. It helps in stabilizing the financial strength of an organization in many ways. Efficient payment posting means practices account for all services provided, accurately submit claims to insurance providers, review information from insurers regarding claims, and coordinate claim payment posting and reconciliation with patient payments on a timely basis. Payment posting also provides insight into a practice’s daily revenue stream and helps practices promptly catch potential issues and make corrections. An efficient payment posting system provides an efficient view of the day-to-day financial picture. Payment posting can be done manually or automatically using technology. An efficient payment process workflow and system help in observing the everyday trends in the payment process and identifying opportunities to increase revenue.
