What our clients say
I used Lisa Chadwick's Integrated Physician Services (IPS) during my very active private practice and for subsequent final collections. She performed all billing and collection services faultlessly and timely. I especially appreciated her ready availability and personal attention to my practice needs. You cannot go wrong with IPS for you practice needs.
Lisa Chadwick was the billing specialist for my medical practice of Phlebology (the diagnosis and treatment of venous disorders). Phlebology was, at that time, a developing specialty in this country and billing for services rendered was often complex and required not only the knowledge of how to properly submit the initial claims sent for reimbursement but also how to minimize denials or, if they occurred, how to successfully address them. Lisa was always responsible, reliable, cooperative and honest - all qualities required of an individual tasked with the responsibility of processing reimbursement information. I can recommend Lisa, without any reservation, for a similar position. I would be willing to respond to possible more direct questions one might have regarding her competence if contacted.Reach me at rcushingmd@gmail.com.
