Pricing and Onboarding: What to Expect
Most podiatry billing companies ask you to sign a multi-year contract before you've seen a single result. HRG works differently.
- Hourly billing. You pay for hours actually worked, with a monthly budget you control.
- One-page contract, no minimum term. You stay because results hold up, not because a contract locks you in.
- Fast onboarding. HRG typically starts working inside your existing EHR within days, since there's no new software to install or migrate.
Why Podiatry Practices Choose HRG
Most billing vendors hand you a portal and disappear. We do the opposite. The table below shows the difference.
| Common billing frustration | What HRG does instead |
|---|---|
| Denials reviewed weeks after the fact | Weekly and monthly A/R reviews by the actual billers |
| Offshore teams you never reach | A 100% U.S.-based team you can call |
| Long contracts that trap you | No long-term contracts, pay for hours used |
| A separate system to learn | We work inside your EHR and payer portals |
| Coding handled by people who never see your audits | We audit and verify coding accuracy, then flag what needs fixing |
Our denial work alone moves the needle. Clients typically see 15 to 30% fewer denials and 15 to 25 fewer days in A/R.
Maximizing Revenue, Minimizing Administrative Burden
Healthcare Revenue Group reduces the paperwork that buries your staff. We handle claims submission, A/R follow-up, payment posting, and denial appeals. The billers who run your account review your A/R every week, so problems surface early. You focus on patient care while we protect the revenue behind it.
Our Scope of Podiatry Billing Services
Claims Submission and Management
We configure your clearinghouse rules engine for accurate, clean submissions. This cuts rejections and shortens the path to payment.
Accounts Receivable Management
We own every step of A/R, from follow-up to payment posting. Our goal is simple. We shrink your outstanding balances and improve cash flow.
Coding Audit and Verification
We audit and verify coding accuracy across your claims. We do not perform your coding. We flag gaps in documentation and modifiers before claims go out, which lowers denial and audit risk. For a deeper look at the codes that trip up podiatry practices, read our guide to understanding podiatry coding and billing.
Compliance and Audit Readiness
Payer rules change constantly, and we track them so you do not have to. We keep your claims audit-ready and flag compliance risks early. Our work covers HIPAA and Medicare billing standards without adding to your team's load.
Protecting DME Revenue: A Podiatry-Specific Risk
Durable medical equipment claims, orthotics, braces, and diabetic footwear carry their own Medicare and payer rules, separate from procedure billing. A missed documentation requirement on a DME claim doesn't just get denied. It can trigger a broader audit of your DME billing history.
HRG tracks DME-specific documentation requirements by payer and flags gaps before submission, not after a denial arrives. That includes proof-of-delivery documentation, medical necessity notes, and the specific HCPCS codes that differ from standard procedure codes.
Sub-Specialties Supported by HRG
We bill for every corner of podiatry, from solo practices to multi-site groups. Our experts know where each sub-specialty leaks revenue.
- Podiatric surgery: We handle the modifier and bundling complexity that surgical claims demand.
- Diabetic foot care: We audit documentation and flag missing medical necessity support before submission.
- Pediatric and geriatric podiatry: We verify that claims carry complete, accurate documentation.
- Orthotic and DME management: We know Medicare and payer DME rules and manage these claims closely. See our breakdown of podiatry billing and DME claims.
- Wound care and limb preservation: High reimbursement means high audit risk, so we scrutinize these claims and flag gaps early.
- Sports and orthopedic podiatry: We bill the intricate diagnoses and treatment plans these cases involve.
Practices expanding across state lines also lean on our multi-state licensing support to keep new providers billing without delay.

Podiatry Billing Services, Questions Answered
How much do podiatry billing services from HRG cost?
HRG bills by the hour, with no long-term contract and no minimum term. You set a monthly hours budget, and invoices are shared before you're ever charged, so there are no surprise fees.
How long does onboarding take with a new podiatry billing company?
HRG works directly inside your existing EHR and payer portals, so there's no new software to install. Most practices see HRG actively working their claims within days of signing, not months.
Does HRG handle DME and orthotic billing for podiatry?
Yes. HRG tracks the Medicare and payer-specific documentation rules for DME, orthotics, braces, and diabetic footwear separately from standard procedure billing, since a single missed requirement can trigger a broader audit.
Which EHR systems does HRG support for podiatry billing?
HRG works inside eClinicalWorks, ModMed (formerly TRAKnet), and NextGen, along with other leading podiatry EHR and practice management systems. There is no new platform to learn.
Will switching podiatry billing companies disrupt our current workflow?
No. HRG works inside your existing EHR and payer portals from day one. There is no data migration and no separate dashboard added to your team's workload.
Does HRG also handle podiatry credentialing and contracting?
Yes. HRG's podiatry credentialing and contracting team coordinates directly with the billing team, so new providers start billing as soon as credentialing clears.
