Independent Dispute Resolution in Arlington
Navigating No Surprises Act Disputes with Confidence
If you’re a healthcare provider in Arlington facing reimbursement conflicts under the No Surprises Act, you’re not alone. The Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) process can be complex—but with the right guidance, it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. At QMACS, we specialize in helping providers across the country resolve payment disputes efficiently and in compliance with federal regulations.

Why IDR Matters for Providers in Arlington
The No Surprises Act introduced new protections for patients, but it also created administrative challenges for emergency departments, freestanding ERs, and physician groups. When insurers underpay—or deny payment outright—IDR is a critical tool for recouping what you’re owed. In a healthcare environment already stressed by rising costs and staffing shortages, every dollar matters.

John Pagnozzi MD, FACS
I have had the opportunity to work with QMACS for the last 15 years. The company was recommended to me by fellow physicians. I knew that I made the right decision when I noticed a change in revenue with the ability of these professionals to be knowledgeable in all of the latest changes in coding , billing, and quality assurance measures. The monthly updates and reports that they generate for my practice are indispensable for proper record keeping. Without reservation I would recommend QMACS to any medical firm or practice.
Matthew S. Coons, MD, FACS
We have worked with QMACS for almost 25 years, simply because they are the best. QMACS submit claims timely, send reports requesting any missing information for the claims to be submitted as the insurance carriers request, and follow through with multiple level appeals with a high degree of success. Their coders are top notch. They collect the patient balances due after the claim is paid. The proof of that is the low number of patients being placed in collections. In addition to their stellar work performance they have a team of highly qualified professionals who are kind, courteous, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful.
