Joliet is the largest city in Will County, one of the fastest-growing counties in Illinois, with practices serving a growing suburban population.
Medical Coder is an outsourced medical billing company serving Joliet practices of every size. We take over coding, claims, denials and A/R follow-up so your team can focus on patients.
Joliet Medical Billing Built Around Illinois Payers
Most avoidable denials start with payer rules. For Joliet practices we work every major payer in Illinois:
- Medicaid: Illinois Medicaid, administered by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS), through HealthChoice Illinois plans such as Blue Cross Community Health Plans, Meridian, Molina, Aetna Better Health of Illinois and CountyCare in Cook County.
- Medicare: Part A and Part B claims through National Government Services (Jurisdiction 6), plus Medicare Advantage plans.
- Commercial plans: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna and Humana.
- TRICARE and VA Community Care for military families and veterans.
Illinois has payer rules of its own — see medical billing in Illinois for how we handle them.
