Google Business Profile Checklist for Dentists and Physical Therapists
A section-by-section checklist for optimizing a Google Business Profile for dental and physical therapy practices in Florida, beyond just claiming the listing.
Medical Billing · Florida
A Florida medical billing company for independent practices that knows the state’s payers and rules: Florida Medicaid managed care plans, PIP auto claims, Florida Blue, Medicare and workers’ compensation. We submit clean claims, work every denial and collect what you are owed.
The Problem
Billing in Florida is not the same as billing anywhere else. Statewide Medicaid Managed Care plans each have their own requirements, personal injury protection (PIP) auto claims follow strict timelines and fee schedules, and workers’ compensation claims run through a separate system.
Generic billing companies often treat these as exceptions. For Florida practices they are everyday claims, and handling them wrong is a common source of lost revenue.
Each SMMC plan has its own authorization, enrollment and timely filing rules.
Auto injury claims need correct documentation, deadlines and fee schedule handling.
Separate forms, authorizations and fee schedules slow payment if handled like commercial claims.
Unworked Florida Blue, Medicare and commercial claims age past filing limits.
