Get An Expert TakeNo Two Radiology Clinics Are The Same...
...but many deal with similar issues. We bring our experience from working with many other radiology groups to help you navigate the key questions for your practice.
How involved should I be in my billing?
You want to know everything and do nothing. You are the business owner and your biller should help you understand your business — what's working, what's not, and where the money is going. The right billing partner makes that effortless.
How do I negotiate better payer rates?
You need to push for better rates up front and ask for a raise every year. With insurance companies, the more you ask, the more you get. Most practices accept whatever rates payers offer at credentialing and never revisit them — that's leaving money on the table.
Should I hire an NP or PA?
Mid-level providers can dramatically expand your capacity and let you focus on the cases that need your expertise. But the math has to work — salary, billing rates, supervision requirements, and payer credentialing all factor in.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Atlas handle radiology benefit manager (RBM) authorizations? +
We integrate with your scheduling workflow to verify RBM authorization status before every advanced imaging study. When authorizations are missing or expired, we flag the study before it is performed, preventing the single largest source of radiology claim denials. For urgent add-on studies, we process retroactive authorizations within payer-required timeframes.
How long does the transition take? +
Most practices are fully transitioned within 30 days. We run in parallel with your current billing operation during the overlap period so there is zero disruption to your cash flow and no claims fall through the cracks.
Do you provide a dedicated billing manager? +
Yes. Every Atlas client gets a dedicated billing manager with a direct phone number you can call or text anytime. Your billing manager knows your payer mix, your fee schedules, and your practice inside and out.
Are there long-term contracts? +
No. We work on month-to-month agreements because we believe you should stay with us because of results, not because of a contract. Most of our clients have been with us for years.
