The first time you enter a bill you will create an account profile we can use to identify you. This will save you time on future visits. You can use your personal login ID to check on the status of your bill negotiations and review your final savings summary report.
To get started, we will ask you to provide some basic information about your medical bill and provider by entering it, or faxing it, directly to Medical Cost Advocate. Medical Cost Advocate will negotiate any medical or dental bill as long as it exceeds the $300 minimum.
Our four step bill entry process will take you less than five minutes to complete.
- Confirm Patient Information – Your or your dependent’s information
-Enter Provider Information – Your medical provider’s contact information
-Enter Bill Information – Specific information about procedures and charges to be negotiated ( You may fax the actual bill using our “fax link” service)
-Enter payment/authorization Information - Credit / debit card pre-authorization and approval of terms (Note: no amount will be charged)
When you have entered the information and authorized Medical Cost Advocate, we are ready to negotiate with your provider to save you money. We will then contact your provider, conduct a professional negotiation, obtain agreement from the provider and charge your credit / debit card for the final reduced amount on your behalf.
If we don’t save you money we don’t pay the provider and our services are free.
The whole negotiation process usually takes less than three days depending on the responsiveness of your provider. When we are done we will email you a service summary report showing you how much you have saved. You can also access this information by selecting “Manage Account” on the website and logging into your personal account profile.
Medical Cost Advocate negotiators are professional, tenacious and constructive. They undergo rigorous training and are careful to maintain personal relationships in their negotiation.
Medical Cost Advocate professionals use a fact based approach to negotiation, leveraging five factors to achieve savings. Most importantly, we use proprietary and industry data derived over years of negotiation of medical claims, so we can review and re-price the procedure with the provider. We also leverage prompt payment, reduced risk and our professional reputation to get you results.
