Company combines Athena-trained billing specialists, specialty-specific coding, and AI-powered revenue cycle automation to help practices reduce denials, accelerate reimbursement, and improve financial visibility.
Transcure, a medical billing and revenue cycle management company serving healthcare practices across the United States, today announced its continued focus on athenahealth billing services designed to help physician practices improve revenue cycle efficiency without changing their existing electronic health record workflows.
The company’s outsource athenahealth billing services are designed to help healthcare practices streamline revenue cycle operations while maintaining their existing athenaOne workflows. Transcure combines Athena-trained billing professionals, AAPC-certified coders, specialty-specific revenue cycle expertise, and AI-powered automation to support key billing functions, including eligibility verification, coding, claims submission, payment posting, denial management, and accounts receivable follow-up.
As practices face increasing administrative demands, payer complexity, staffing challenges, and pressure to maintain predictable cash flow, Transcure is positioning outsourced revenue cycle management as a way for healthcare organizations to access specialized billing resources while maintaining their existing technology infrastructure.
Addressing the Financial Impact of Revenue Cycle Inefficiency
Medical billing directly affects how quickly a practice converts completed services into collected revenue. Delayed claims, coding errors, payer denials, and aging accounts receivable can increase administrative costs while slowing cash flow.
Transcure’s athenahealth billing services are designed to address these challenges through an end-to-end revenue cycle approach. The company’s published service offering includes eligibility verification, prior authorization, charge entry, medical coding, claim scrubbing and submission, payment posting, denial management, and AR follow-up.
A representative at Transcure said healthcare practices need more than billing software to maintain a healthy revenue cycle. The company focuses on combining the capabilities of athenaOne with specialized billing expertise and automation to help practices spend less time managing revenue cycle bottlenecks and more time focusing on patient care and business growth.
Specialized Athena Expertise Without an EMR Migration
A central component of Transcure’s approach is providing billing support within the practice’s existing system.
Rather than requiring practices to migrate their financial workflows to a different platform, Transcure’s billing specialists operate directly within supported EMR environments. The company currently supports Athena, Epic, Kareo, and other leading platforms.
For athenahealth users, this model is intended to minimize workflow disruption while giving practices access to billing specialists familiar with athenaOne processes, payer requirements, coding rules, and revenue cycle workflows.
Transcure reports that its billing organization supports more than 40 specialties and includes more than 1,100 AAPC-certified billers and coders.
Combining Human Expertise With AI-Powered RCM
Transcure is also integrating AI-powered automation into its revenue cycle services.
The company’s athenahealth offering includes AI agents designed to support areas such as eligibility verification, prior authorization, coding and compliance review, claim scrubbing, denial management, accounts receivable follow-up, and payment reconciliation.
The combination of automated workflows and human billing expertise is intended to help practices identify revenue cycle issues earlier, reduce repetitive administrative work, and maintain consistent follow-up on outstanding claims.
Performance Metrics Provide Visibility Into Revenue Cycle Operations
Transcure’s published performance figures include more than $500 million in claims processed, 2.7 million claims processed, 24 average accounts receivable days, a 98% first-pass clean claim rate, and a 48-hour turnaround time. The company also reports a 99% customer retention rate and revenue improvement of 5%–10%. These are company-reported figures and can vary based on client, specialty, payer mix, and operating conditions.
For practices evaluating an outsourced billing partner, metrics such as clean claim rate, AR days, denial rate, collection rate, and payment turnaround can provide a framework for measuring revenue cycle performance before and after implementation.
Supporting Practices Across Multiple Specialties
Transcure provides billing and revenue cycle services across more than 40 specialties, including cardiology, orthopedics, neurology, nephrology, gastroenterology, psychiatry, primary care, pain management, podiatry, and OB/GYN.
The company says its specialty-specific approach allows billing teams to account for differences in coding requirements, payer policies, documentation requirements, and reimbursement workflows across medical specialties.
A Scalable Approach to Revenue Cycle Management
As physician practices add providers, locations, and service lines, their billing volume and administrative requirements can increase accordingly. Transcure’s outsourced model is designed to provide practices with access to dedicated billing resources without requiring them to build and manage an equivalent internal billing operation.
The company also provides real-time reporting and KPI tracking to give practices visibility into collections, AR, denials, and other revenue cycle performance indicators.
