Revenue cycle / stage 06
A claim sitting in AR is not paid. It is just not resolved yet.
Accounts receivable follow-up is the disciplined work of tracking every unpaid claim through the aging report, understanding why each payer has not paid, and taking the specific next action to move it forward, an appeal, a resubmission, a call to the payer.
Denial management sits alongside it: identifying the root cause behind recurring denial patterns and fixing the upstream stage that keeps producing them, rather than reworking the same denial type indefinitely.
