Case Study: Meridian Weight Management Center achieves faster payments and fewer claim denials with AdvancedMD

Meridian Weight Management Center - Customer Case Study

Meridian Weight Management Center, founded in 2013 in Meridian, MS, is a rapidly growing weight-management and behavioral-health practice (about 10,000 patient visits per year) that struggled with a poor initial EMR/billing setup and an ineffective in-house RCM process. Claims denials, high accounts receivable—especially many over 120 days—and near payroll shortfalls threatened the practice’s sustainability and expansion plans.

Meridian adopted the AdvancedMD suite (AdvancedPM, AdvancedEHR and outsourced AdvancedRCM), using implementation support and a dedicated RCM liaison to clean up AR, streamline charge entry and reduce coding errors. The integrated solution drove most AR to current (within 30 days), cut the over-120-days bucket by about 20%, improved collections without large administrative hires, and enabled continued growth and new clinic openings.
