Dental Billing Services for Maryland Built for Maryland Dental Practices
Carevonix's US-based team delivers dental billing services for healthcare practices across Maryland, from Baltimore, Silver Spring, Frederick. We work inside your EHR and know the payer mix you actually bill: CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna.
Why dental billing is its own beast
Dental claims aren't medical claims with a different code. Attachments, narratives, frequency limits, downgrades, write-offs by PPO contract, predeterminations. The rules are different and so are the systems. Most outsourced billing companies stretch a medical team to cover dental, and your collections suffer. Maryland's global-budget environment changes how outpatient practices interact with hospital-affiliated payers; specialty RCM knowledge of the state model matters.
- •Claims rejected because attachments or narratives were missing
- •PPO underpayments hidden in monthly EOBs nobody audits
- •Frequency limits triggering denials on routine cleanings and x-rays
- •Aging insurance AR over 60 days that nobody is working
- •Patient balances unsent because the front desk is buried
What our dental billing service handles
A dedicated dental billing team working inside Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, Curve, or Carestream, owning every step from submission to collection.
Insurance claim submission
Daily claim submission with the right CDT codes, attachments, and narratives. First-pass acceptance for routine claims, and complete documentation for complex ones.
Attachments and narratives
Perio charting, intraoral images, x-rays, and clinical narratives attached and submitted with every claim that requires them. No more 'need more info' denials.
Insurance verification and breakdowns
Full benefits breakdowns (frequency, downgrades, missing tooth clauses, waiting periods) completed before the patient's appointment.
Denial and rejection follow-up
Every denial worked within 48 hours. Resubmissions, appeals, and corrected claims, tracked daily until paid.
PPO fee schedule audits
We compare every EOB to your contracted PPO fee schedule and appeal underpayments. Practices typically recover 2-5% of net revenue they were silently losing.
Patient billing and AR management
Patient statements, balance follow-up, payment plan management, and aging report cleanup, keeping patient AR under 30 days.
