Florida has one of the highest concentrations of independent medical practices in the US — driven by a large retiree population, high Medicare and Medicare Advantage penetration, and a growing number of concierge and direct-pay hybrid practices.
Dr. Billerz places dedicated, HIPAA-certified medical billing specialists who work inside your Florida practice’s EHR — from Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, Fort Lauderdale to rural communities — at $7/hour with a free RCM manager on every account and a 4-week free pilot before you commit to anything.
The Billing Challenge Specific to Florida
Florida practices have an outsized Medicare Advantage challenge: Florida’s payer mix skews heavily toward MA plans with different prior authorization, billing rules, and timely filing requirements than traditional Medicare. Billing staff who know traditional Medicare but not MA plan-specific rules generate systematic errors.
A Dr. Billerz biller placed on a Florida practice account is matched not just to your specialty but to your state’s Medicaid rules, your specific payer mix, and your EHR platform. The goal is zero systematic errors from day one — not a 60-day learning curve on your claims.
EHR Platforms We Work In for Florida Practices
athenahealth, Kareo/Tebra, and AdvancedMD are common in Florida independent practices. Home health and behavioral health practices frequently use Homecare Homebase and SimplePractice.
Biller placement includes EHR proficiency testing before the first day on your account. A biller assigned to your practice has been verified to work competently in your specific platform — not just to “adapt quickly.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you serve Florida medical practices?
Yes. Dr. Billerz places dedicated billing specialists for practices across the United States including Florida. Billers work remotely inside your EHR — the state you’re in doesn’t affect the billing workflow. What matters is your specialty, your EHR platform, and your specific payer mix — all of which are matched and tested before placement.
Do your billers know Florida Medicaid billing rules?
Yes. Florida Medicaid has specific rules and systems that differ from commercial billing. Biller placement for Florida practices includes verification of state Medicaid familiarity for the relevant billing system and payer requirements in your county or region.
How fast can you start billing for a Florida practice?
Typically 10–14 business days from agreement to active biller working your claims. The onboarding includes EHR access setup, payer-specific workflow documentation, and an intake audit of your existing AR before the first new claims are submitted.
