Syracuse is the healthcare center of Central New York, home to SUNY Upstate Medical University, with Excellus BCBS as a leading commercial payer.
Medical Coder provides outsourced medical billing services in Syracuse for independent practices and groups — from eligibility checks to final payment — so you get paid faster with fewer denials.
Syracuse Medical Billing Built Around New York Payers
Most avoidable denials start with payer rules. For Syracuse practices we work every major payer in New York:
- Medicaid: New York Medicaid, administered by the Department of Health through eMedNY, and Medicaid managed care plans such as Fidelis Care, Healthfirst, MetroPlus Health and EmblemHealth.
- Medicare: Part A and Part B claims through National Government Services (Jurisdiction K), plus Medicare Advantage plans.
- Commercial plans: Empire BlueCross BlueShield, Excellus BCBS, Highmark BCBS of Western New York, EmblemHealth, MVP Health Care, CDPHP, Independent Health, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna and Cigna.
- TRICARE and VA Community Care for military families and veterans.
New York has payer rules of its own — see medical billing in New York for how we handle them.
