Making sure your Practice gets Paid

Deductibles! How do you protect your practice from the risk of not being paid, while protecting your patients' finances?

It's that time of year again, you are going to notice the impact of the patient's deductibles. So how do you deal with the problem of patients having to pay out of pocket to meet their deductibles?
