Qualigenix runs the revenue cycle for New Orleans practices from the eligibility check to the posted payment, for Healthy Louisiana, Medicare and commercial payers.
Speak with our RCM specialists today.



Qualigenix revenue cycle management covers New Orleans practices whose revenue depends on a few payer groups: Healthy Louisiana Medicaid plans, Medicare and D-SNP plans, and employer coverage led by Louisiana Blue. The city and Orleans Parish share one boundary, so the payer mix is the same across town. Statewide revenue cycle rules are on our page for revenue cycle management in Louisiana. Here we cover the parish-level points: plan changes, renewals and authorizations. Qualigenix charges a percentage of collections and works every payer.
Qualigenix handles eight connected services for New Orleans practices: insurance verification, prior authorization, medical coding, medical billing, payment posting, denial management, A/R recovery and credentialing.
One team owns each patient account from scheduling to the last dollar collected, inside your existing EHR.
Healthy Louisiana plans carry most Medicaid revenue in New Orleans, and 2026 brought more plan movement than any recent year. Qualigenix builds the front end of the cycle around that movement, so claims don't stall at the wrong plan.
Since March 1, 2026, Healthy Louisiana members can change health or dental plans at any time, up to twice a year. Healthy Blue's contract ends December 31, 2026, moving its members to Aetna Better Health, AmeriHealth Caritas Louisiana, Humana Healthy Horizons in Louisiana or Louisiana Healthcare Connections. Louisiana expanded Medicaid, and CMS guidance has expansion states renew those adults every six months starting January 1, 2027. Qualigenix checks eligibility in Louisiana Medicaid's system before each New Orleans visit and flags patients whose renewal is coming due, so coverage gaps surface at the front desk.
Since 2026, Medicaid managed care plans must decide standard prior authorization requests within 7 calendar days and urgent ones within 72 hours. When a patient moves plans, an old approval may not carry over, so Qualigenix rechecks open authorizations with the new plan before the service date.
Filing windows, Novitas enrollment and commercial payment timelines for Louisiana are on how Qualigenix manages Louisiana revenue cycle rules statewide. New Orleans follows them as written.
Novitas Solutions handles Original Medicare Part A and B for Louisiana under Jurisdiction H, a contract CMS re-awarded to Novitas in June 2026. Qualigenix tracks Medicare claims from submission to remittance with Novitas. Dual-eligible patients in Orleans Parish can choose 2026 D-SNPs from Humana, Peoples Health, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana or Devoted Health, so we verify which plan pays first before the visit. For fully insured commercial plans, Louisiana regulation sets 25 days to pay a clean electronic claim from a contracted provider and 45 days for paper. Self-funded employer plans fall outside those state rules, so we track their contract terms instead. Underpaid or late claims from either group go straight to follow-up, not to a write-off list.
These are company-wide results across Qualigenix RCM clients, not New Orleans-only figures. They come from the same eight-service process your practice would use, and each metric is defined in your monthly report.

Frequently asked questions regarding Healthy Louisiana plan changes, prior authorization turnarounds, Novitas Medicare, and full RCM onboarding in New Orleans, LA.
No. Revenue cycle results come from knowing Louisiana's payers and working every claim, not from a street address. Qualigenix works Healthy Louisiana, Novitas and commercial plans inside your EHR. Talk to a revenue cycle specialist to compare.
Eight connected services: insurance verification, prior authorization, medical coding, medical billing, payment posting, denial management, A/R recovery and credentialing. One team runs all of them for your practice.
We check eligibility before every visit, since members can switch plans up to twice a year. When Healthy Blue's contract ends December 31, 2026, we move 2027 visits and open authorizations to the member's new plan.
Yes. We submit and track prior authorizations with Healthy Louisiana plans, Medicare Advantage and D-SNP plans, and commercial payers, and we follow each request to the plan's decision deadline.
We submit clean claims fast, post payments against expected rates and work every unpaid claim daily by payer and age. Across clients, days in A/R dropped from 54 to 36, and A/R over 90 days fell to 38%.
Qualigenix charges a percentage of collections, so our fee rises and falls with what your practice is paid. The rate depends on specialty, volume and payer mix.
Yes. We sign a business associate agreement before any access to patient data, and our RCM work runs under HIPAA privacy and security safeguards.
