It started about mid-2014, after our billing company got bought out. We immediately saw our collection rates creeping down. AR held for a little while, and then went through the roof in 2015.
Our billing company tells us that the decreased collections are due to Obamacare's high premium/high deductible plans. The AR is due to not having enough staffing to work the accounts in a timely fashion; some of the accounts are a year old!
I am at a loss as to how to deal with this. We've yelled and screamed at the company for years to get its act together, and while they express a desire to do better, I can't see what they've done to substantively improve things.
Advice? It kills me that perhaps the main reason why we're not doing as well as we have in the past might be because of our billing company!
