OBC Insurance Billing & Credentialing Specialists was started in 2006 by IOA member, Dr. Eric Botts. Initially OBC started with educating doctors and staff on the correct and ethical way to submit medical claims. It then transformed into an all-inclusive billing service that includes the initial credentialing/application process for all insurance panels. OBC also follows with the complete process of submitting a medical/routine claim, researching denied claims, submitting secondary claims and billing patients for any balance due. Out-sourcing insurance billing is an excellent way to improve efficiency and increase productivity in a professional healthcare setting.
