Medical Billing Built for Maryland Healthcare Providers
Maryland runs a hospital payment system no other state has: under a federal waiver, the Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC) sets regulated hospital rates that apply to every payer — Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers alike pay the same HSCRC-approved rate for the same hospital service, which changes how hospital-based claims and reimbursement analysis work compared to the negotiated-rate model used almost everywhere else. On the outpatient and Medicaid side, Maryland delivers Medicaid through HealthChoice, its managed-care program, with MCOs including Priority Partners, Maryland Physicians Care, and Kaiser Permanente. Maryland also expanded Medicaid under the ACA in 2014, and CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield — the regional Blue licensee covering Maryland, D.C., and Northern Virginia — is the state's dominant commercial carrier.
Whether you're in Baltimore, Frederick, Rockville or anywhere else in Maryland — ZenoMedix RCM provides the same certified billing expertise with deep knowledge of local payer rules and Maryland Medicaid requirements.
