Our principals have been involved in providing third-party eligibility services to hospitals since 1992. They believed there was a more efficient and effective way to identify billable Medicaid accounts than what was currently in use. They were right.
Based in Austin, Texas, eScan today operates in 37 states with over 350 hospital and physician group partners. Since its inception in 2002, eScan has discovered and converted over 200,000 uncompensated care accounts to Medicaid representing nearly $1 billion dollars in charges.
We have one simple goal - to help you find the money that’s rightfully yours.
