    Webinar Training Sessions: With all of the changes in Medicaid claiming, both at a national level and within Iowa, training of staff is vital to the appropriate documentation of services. We provide specific training for staff that exceeds that of any billing service in Iowa. In addition to the webinars, online tutorials are available on the client only section of our website.

    Quality Assurance: This is a unique feature for our clients and has proven to be a tremendous benefit. We have updated our Quality Assurance process to include a scoring system that will assist our client districts with determining specific issues. If you are using another vendor as your billing service, do they provide a quarterly review of your documentation? Or do you only see them once or twice a year? We believe in supporting our clients all year.
