Medicaid Eligibility

Because the qualification processes and requirements for many Medicaid programs are extremely complicated, many hospitals are underpaid for services provided to Medicaid eligible patients. Potential Medicaid-eligible patients are inadvertently categorized as Bad Debt, Charity Care or Self Pay. In order to assist hospitals in the collection of all entitled revenue, CBIZ has developed services to retroactively screen patients classified as Self-Pay, Bad Debt, Charity Care (written-off) and Pending Charity Care for Medicaid eligibility and enroll eligible patients in a wide variety of Medicaid programs.

The Leifer Group is different from other consulting firms. They have a tremendous amount of knowledge about the state of health delivery in general, and the health information industry specifically. I work with several other consulting firms currently, and The Leifer Group is the only firm who can address issues with me in real time. Their knowledge allows them to solve problems right away.

I am pleased that The Leifer Group displays the primary attributes that I most prize. The professionals at The Leifer Group are my partners and consistently display this most important attribute.
