here to help your office get compliant, and to get you paid.
Westshore Lien Management provides Workers' Compensation AR

5.  Billing and Coding Inaccuracies:
 OMFS and CPT Coding errors result in chronic short pays.
 Failure to aggressively appeal downcoded items and denials within 90 days using
Provider Request for 2nd
Bill Review. How many write offs do you now have?
 Failure to properly document all of your services, ESPECIALLY Records Reviews and
face-to-face time spent with patients.
 Lack of follow-through: how many claims never got to their destination?
Collection/Lien Deficiencies:
 Failure to file liens within the new SB863 statutes.
 Failure to resolve lien BEFORE you have to pay the Lien Activation Fees.
 Inability to frame the legal issues of your lien (ie. UR, MPN, Statutes, etc.)
 Failure to attend WCAB hearings, resulting in Notices of Intention to Dismiss your liens.
 Ineffective collections techniques.
