Teamwork
We view the relationship with our clients more like members of a team than just "customers". We want you to get paid in full for the services you render. That means you, your staff and MBA are all working together to achieve a common goal. We frequently discuss ways to improve workflow with our clients and their staff. We want to work together with you and adjust our service to fit the particular needs of your practice.
Our staff
In this industry, the rules are changing constantly. Insurance companies implement new policies that delay the payment of a claim seemingly every day. The reality of this is that you must have a staff capable of reacting to these changes. MBA believes in hiring only the best. Every new employee must go through several interviews and pass a battery of standardized clerical, coding and medical terminology tests. In addition, candidates must complete industry-standard personality tests in order to ensure they will "fit" into our environment.
MBA subscribes to the philosophy that comfortable, happy employees are productive employees. From the chair they sit in to the computer in front of them, we believe they should have the best tools at their disposal. It’s no secret that employee turnover is one of the highest costs to a company, which is why MBA believes in making each employee feel appreciated and respected. We don't believe you can be successful in this business by hiring average employees and paying them average salaries! Over the years, we have built a solid staff capable of handling the wide variety of challenges that insurance companies throw our way. |
