New York-Specific Billing Problems That Silently Cost Practices Revenue

New York practices navigate a strict 90-day Medicaid timely filing window, a dual eMedNY FFS and Managed Care billing structure, January 2024 coverage with new prior auth requirements, and New York-specific commercial payers like Healthplex and EmblemHealth that out-of-state vendors routinely mishandle.

How TransDontics Handles New York Billing Differently?

TransDontics’s 1,100+ in-house dental billing specialists are supported by RPA automation engineered for New York’s dental billing environment. Every process is designed around the actual payer rules, fee schedules, and documentation standards your claims will face.

Automation & Human Judgment in Every Claim

Automation & Human Judgment in Every Claim

TransDontics combines RPA automation with specialist judgment. RPA handles eligibility verification, eMedNY FFS versus MMC routing, CDT scrubbing, and payment posting while specialists handle prior authorization documentation, appeals, EOB reconciliation, and payer escalations.

Comprehensive Payment Reconciliation

Comprehensive Payment Reconciliation

Every payment is reconciled against your contracted rate, line by line, across every payer. When Delta Dental of New York or any commercial carrier pays below the agreed fee on a specific plan type, we flag it and file the appeal within 14 days. Most practices only catch outright denials. We go further.

New York's 90-Day Medicaid Rule

New York's 90-day eMedNY timely filing window is strictly enforced. We flag every Medicaid FFS claim at day 30 for status review and day 60 for escalation. Claims approaching day 90 without payment confirmation are escalated immediately. We prevent timely filing denials before they happen.

48 Hours Turnaround Time​

48-Hour Turnaround Time.

Claims processed within 48 hours of receipt. No setup fee, no monthly minimum, no long-term contract, and no hidden costs buried in the fine print. Our fee is a nominal percentage of what we successfully collect from payers on your behalf. We only earn when you get paid.

Why Dental Practices Switch To TransDontics & STAY!

All billing companies are not built the same. Before you decide, see exactly what you’re getting by partnering with TransDontics.

01

The In-House Biller Problem: Knowledge That Walks Out the Door

An in-house biller knows your practice; not eMedNY’s 90-day filing rules, Healthfirst versus eMedNY FFS submission differences, or January 2024 prior auth documentation changes. Turnover resets that knowledge. Ours doesn’t.

02

Most billing companies submit claims. They won’t track the 90-day eMedNY window, reconcile EOBs against contracted rates, or capture January 2025 eConsult billing opportunities. TransDontics does all of it.

03

Most billing companies are a service. TransDontics is a system. RPA catches what humans miss at volume. Experienced billers catch what automation can’t judge. The result is a first-pass acceptance rate of 98%.

What Practices Typically See After Switching?

We don’t publish named case studies because most clients prefer to keep billing performance private. What we can share is what the numbers look like across practices with comparable payer profiles.

Revenue Growth (120 days) Baseline 5–12% Increase

A Brooklyn practice came to us with a 10%+ denial rate, 35% of A/R past 90 days, Medicaid Managed Care claims routed through eMedNY instead of the correct MCO dental administrator, and crown prior auth requests denied for missing clinical documentation.

Within 60–90 days:

New York-Specific Dental Billing & Coding Expertise

New York Compliance You Can Actually Rely On

New York practices carry HIPAA obligations alongside NY Public Health Law §18, 8 NYCRR §29.2(a)(3) requiring six-year minimum record retention, and OPD oversight with no complaint statute of limitations. TransDontics is HIPAA certified and AICPA SOC 2 Type II compliant.

Encrypted Data Transmission

All patient data is encrypted end-to-end, satisfying HIPAA Security Rule technical safeguards and New York Public Health Law §18 patient records protections. Every data transmission meets the highest applicable standard, not just the minimum.

Role-Based Access Controls

Only credentialed TransDontics personnel can access your practice data, eliminating the internal access vulnerabilities that turn in-house billing into a compliance liability most New York practice owners don’t realize they are carrying until it is too late.

Independently Audited Security

Independently Audited Security

Our AICPA SOC 2 Type II certification is independently audited and renewed annually. Everything is documented and third-party verified. Your New York practice’s liability exposure is measurably reduced from day one of our partnership.

Cost Comparison: In-House vs. TransDontics

In-house billing looks cheaper on paper. It rarely is. Between staffing overhead, turnover, training costs, and the revenue lost to eMedNY write-offs and MMC routing errors, most New York practices are spending far more and collecting far less. TransDontics’s fee is a percentage of what you actually collect. That is the whole model.

Frequently Ask Questions

What actually makes New York dental billing harder than other states?

Four things most billing companies underestimate: New York’s eMedNY Medicaid FFS timely filing window is 90 days with no tolerance for provider delays, making it one of the strictest in the country; Medicaid splits into two entirely different billing systems (eMedNY FFS and MMC plan portals) that cannot be interchanged without generating denials; the January 2024 expansion of coverage for crowns, root canals, implants, and replacement dentures introduced new prior authorization documentation requirements that practices are still mishandling; and the commercial market includes New York-specific carriers like Healthplex and EmblemHealth/GHI that out-of-state billing companies routinely fail to credential with or bill correctly.
RPA handles volume tasks automatically and continuously: eligibility verification, eMedNY FFS vs. MMC routing, CDT code scrubbing, 90-day timely filing tracking, and payment posting. Billing specialists handle what requires judgment: crown and root canal prior authorization documentation reviews, appeals, EOB reconciliation, and payer escalations. The combination is what keeps the first-pass rate at 98%. Either layer alone does not achieve that.
Yes. Our data handling protocols satisfy HIPAA, New York Public Health Law §18 (patient record access within 10 days of a written request), and 8 NYCRR §29.2(a)(3) of the Rules of the Board of Regents (minimum six-year retention requirement; six years or until one year after the minor patient’s 21st birthday for minors), in addition to our AICPA SOC 2 Type II audit compliance.
Effective January 31, 2024, following the settlement of Ciaramella v. McDonald, New York expanded Medicaid dental coverage to include crowns, root canals, replacement dentures, dental implants, and crown lengthening as covered benefits when medically necessary for both FFS and MMC patients. Prior authorization requests for these services may no longer be denied solely on the basis that the service is not a covered benefit. However, all prior authorization requests must be accompanied by the NYS-mandated Justification of Replacement Dentures form (for replacement prosthetics) and Evaluation of Dental Implant Patient form (for implants), available on eMedNY. Crown requests require specific clinical criteria documentation under the Dental Manual’s updated Section III. Practices submitting prior authorization requests without the correct forms and documentation are generating medical necessity denials that could have been avoided.
New York State Medicaid FFS dental claims must be submitted and be payable through the eMedNY portal within 90 calendar days of the date of service. This deadline is enforced by eMedNY edit 01292. Claims denied for late filing cannot be appealed based on medical necessity and are permanently unrecoverable unless an eligible delay reason code applies, and the eMedNY FAQ explicitly states that provider delays do not qualify for billing beyond 90 days. Paid claims requiring adjustment and denied claims requiring resubmission must be corrected within 60 days of notification. Our team files at 48 hours and flags every New York Medicaid FFS claim at day 30 for status review.
TransDontics charges a small percentage commission based solely on what your practice successfully collects from insurance payers. There are no upfront fees, no monthly retainers, and no hidden charges. If you don’t collect, we don’t earn. Our financial incentive is always directly aligned with your practice’s revenue performance.
All active New York payers including NYS Medicaid FFS through eMedNY, all active Medicaid Managed Care dental plans (EmblemHealth/GHI, Healthfirst/DentaQuest, MetroPlus, Molina, WellCare), Delta Dental of New York, MetLife, Guardian, Healthplex, EmblemHealth commercial dental, Excellus BlueCross BlueShield, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Aetna, TRICARE, United Concordia, GEHA, and FEDVIP.
