If your practice is losing revenue to denials, incorrect fee-schedule application, or Medicaid documentation errors; that’s a North Dakota billing problem. Most out-of-state billing vendors never fully learn how ND Medicaid’s FFS structure differs from managed care states. TransDontics’s 1,100+ certified dental billing specialists manage your complete revenue cycle efficiently.
North Dakota’s dental billing environment is deceptively straightforward until it isn’t. Practices from Fargo to Minot are navigating a direct fee-for-service Medicaid structure, adult Medicaid Expansion coverage gaps for dental, and documentation standards set by the North Dakota State Board of Dental Examiners under NDCC Chapter 43-28 that directly affect claim defensibility.

TransDontics’s 1,100+ in-house dental billing specialists are supported by RCM automation engineered for North Dakota’s dental billing environment. Every process is designed around the actual payer rules, fee schedules, and documentation standards your claims will face.
Billing companies are typically either fully manual or heavily automated. TransDontics uses both. Our RCM automation handles high-volume, repetitive tasks like claim scrubbing, eligibility verification, and MMIS submission tracking, while our billing specialists handle anything requiring clinical judgment.
Every payment is reconciled against your contracted rate, line by line, across every payer. When Delta Dental of Minnesota 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 denials. We go further.
Before every North Dakota Medicaid claim, we confirm eligibility through the ND MMIS Portal, verify coverage and prior auth requirements, format with correct CDT coding, and submit within the timely filing window. Mid-year coverage category changes at April eligibility renewals are caught.
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.
Expert CDT coding, clean claim submission, and aggressive denial management by specialty-certified billers. 98% first-pass clean claim rate.
No claim goes 48 hours without follow-up. We pursue every outstanding balance across all payers until it is paid, appealed or written off.
Get in-network faster. We handle all payer paperwork, CAQH maintenance, renewals, and compliance tracking so you start seeing insured patients.
Full revenue cycle coverage from patient registration to final payment. We manage all claims, close every gap, and maximize your collections.

01
An in-house biller knows your practice; not necessarily North Dakota’s MMIS submission rules, Delta Dental of Minnesota’s tier reimbursement structure, or what BCBSND’s United Concordia requires on a pre-auth.
Most billing companies submit claims. They won’t reconcile every EOB against your contracted rate, flag ND Medicaid documentation deficiencies before they become audit liabilities, or chase uncollected revenue.
Most billing companies are a service. TransDontics is a system; RPA catching what humans miss at volume, experienced billers catching what automation cannot judge. The result is a first-pass acceptance rate of 98%.
