There are many benefits for a Medical Office to become participating or network provider with health insurance plans. Provider participation:
- Allows you to be listed in the physician directory - Free Advertising!
- Automatic assigned benefits - Payments come directly to you
- Improves payment turn around time - Most contracts require 30 day payments
Depending on the payer mix in your market area, the medical office should research before determining which insurance plans to participate with.
Each health plan has it's own method of processing enrollment applications to becoming a participating provider. Aetna recognizes itself as one of the nation's leaders in health insurance. Learn how to participate in an Aetna network.
