California Workers’ Compensation Billing: Turning Challenges into Collections
Treating injured workers in California comes with unique challenges. Billing and collections shouldn’t be one of them.
California’s workers’ comp system is governed by strict regulations, frequent fee schedule updates, and tight appeal deadlines. Many providers struggle with denials, underpayments, and aged AR that seem impossible to recover.
At Meraki RCM Solutions, LLC, we specialize in California workers’ compensation billing and collections. Our mission is simple: get providers paid—fully, compliantly, and fast.
Why Workers’ Comp Billing is Complex in California
Unlike regular medical billing, California WC requires:
- Electronic billing compliance (mandatory).
- OMFS fee schedule expertise (updated regularly).
- Strict appeal timelines (90 days for SBR, 30 days for IBR).
- Lien filing through EAMS & Jet-Filing.
- Penalty & interest enforcement under CA Labor Code.
Generic billing companies often don’t have the knowledge or persistence to manage this. That’s where Meraki steps in.
