A $2.6 million contract to install a new medical bill processing system has been signed by the West Virginia Workers’ Compensation Commission (WVCC), no estimate was given for when the system will go online.
“Improving our efficiency in medical billing and payment will encourage more providers, particularly specialists, to accept Workers’ Compensation patients in all areas of the state,” Gregory A. Burton, WVCC executive director explained. “The new Medata medical bill processing system will make it easier for health care providers to submit invoices and check on the status of payments.”
Burton said that upgrading the medical bill processing system will enable the WVCC to conduct business in a vastly more efficient manner by reducing errors and improving speed.
“The new billing system will result in a more logical and streamlined business process,” Burton said.
Medata is a Tustin, Calif.-based provider of bill review software and services for property/casualty insurers, state compensation funds, self-insured employers and third party administrators.
