ProviderLAW Releases Major Resources on Nationwide UCC Lien Law
Providers, Staff,
Billing Companies: Did you know that
there is a national, uniform, non-discriminatory lien framework that not only
helps health care practitioners to collect on their bills ... more importantly, it enables patients to
receive care from providers of their own choosing?
Recently,
ProviderLAW began to release a series of resources on Tipology relating to the nationwide UCC Lien
Law ("UCC" stands for "Uniform Commercial Code").
For example, here
are 3 resources you should check out:
- ProviderLAW Paper – “Nationwide UCC Lien Statute
Helps Providers to Collect in Trauma Cases… and Patients to Receive Care From
Wherever They Choose: What This
Nationwide Lien Statute Could Mean for Health Care,” by Keith Pendleton, JD
- ProviderLAW’s Model Assignment & UCC Lien
Document
- Recorded Interview – “The Fundamentals of
Improved Insurance Collections in Trauma Cases”
"In my opinion," writes Keith Pendleton, JD, "what makes the UCC Lien Law most
potentially powerful is that now, the interests of providers in securing their
bills - and of patients receiving care from providers of their own choosing -
are part of a national, uniform, non-discriminatory framework which has been
well developed over time. Not only might
the UCC help you collect on your bills, it could also help you to position your
A/R should you later need to obtain a loan.
It could also help you to sell your A/R should you so choose. It provides these potential benefits in a
nationally-recognized, uniform, non-discriminatory fashion. Once you know how to file in one State, you
pretty much know how to file in any State."
