Why Choose Us
Visionary Billing Solutions is not your typical medical billing and collection agency. Its founder, Jon Kiviat, knows first-hand the ins and outs of dealing with substance abuse at all levels of care, from the patient perspective, as well as the perspectives of the facility, the insurance company, and the medical billing agency.
It was from this considerable depth of experience and knowledge that Visionary Billing Solutions (VBS) was born. From his personal and business background, Jon learned it would be a better experience for all concerned if a medical billing/solutions company remained a boutique firm, rather than go the corporate route, and Jon was determined to keep this in mind when he established the firm in October of 2016.
“Once you go corporate you lose the personal touch and we didn’t want to become like every other company. Yes, they are money makers, but you’re not giving your clients the individual attention they deserve. It also takes a certain kind of person (company) to actually know about out of network, know what doctor’s treatment centers and labs should be paid, and how to correctly give the insurance companies what they need so there is no reason for any kind of audit; to make sure they are in compliance with insurance companies and to make sure billing is being done properly.” – Jon Kiviat, Founder
Jon knew there was a better answer. And that answer was the establishment of Visionary Billing Solutions. The firm’s co-owners, Jon Kiviat and Eric Lubowitz, along with several other staffers (“we are more like family than co-workers”) handle billing, collections, consulting and oversight, and utilization review, with a unique personal, hands-on approach. Everything is done in-house. There is no outsourcing so there is no chance for mishaps or misunderstandings.
The team’s years of combined experience have resulted in tried and true solutions for today’s healthcare system. Your company is in excellent hands with Visionary Billing Solutions.
About Visionary Billing Solutions
Jon created Visionary Billing Solutions originally because he knew a better alternative was needed so that companies could not only bill for services in-house, but to bill correctly. VBS mentors these companies, such as IOPs, Detox Centers, and PHPs, and teaches staff what information needs to be noted and included, and how this needs to be done. In a nutshell; the perfect balance between what the in-house client needs, while following proper insurance protocols.
Perhaps even more important is the idea that Visionary Billing Solutions also evolved because Jon knew there was a huge deficit in the industry for not fully taking patient needs into account. And here’s where it gets personal for Jon…
“I understand wanting to get paid, but the system doesn’t allow for enough compassion or reasoning. I know first-hand how important it is for a person to get the right treatment, for as long as they need it. I got sober more than ten years ago through a treatment center, and I know why insurance companies don’t want to pay us, but also why they should pay us. How are you going to put a cost on saving someone’s life?” – Jon
Being a patient himself seems like a lifetime ago, but the personal and business lessons Jon learned have become invaluable. After creating and selling several successful businesses over the years, Jon was drawn more and more to the idea of a medical billing solutions firm. Jon knew there was a better way, an ethical way, for patients to get the treatment they deserved, for treatment centers to be able to provide the proper care without restraint, and for insurance companies and billing companies to work together. Visionary Billing Solutions was the answer.
