How do you manage dental insurance claims processing on your own?

We’ll go ahead and tell you that it’s not easy to file a claim for dental insurance. It could be someone’s full-time job, which is why it needs the skills we talked about above.

But you wouldn’t just deal with the insurance claims process. You would have to take the time to find a good biller. All of the above jobs would be done by you instead of a service. And when you handle your own dental insurance claims, you also have to:

Finding and hiring a biller (or more than one) to handle your claims
Seeing how good the in-house biller is
Making a record of the claims process
Getting the staff up to speed on correct coding and compliance
Planning for vacations and sick days

We’re not trying to scare you by telling you all of this. We just want to explain what it’s like to have to do administrative work on top of filing insurance claims.
