Credentialing
Medical credentialing (the process insurance companies use to access the qualifications of a healthcare provider, to join their network) is necessary for healthcare professionals to participate in health plan networks, provide care to insured patients, and receive in-network payment for services.
Medical Billing
Outsourcing medical billing and coding can lead to improved revenue outcomes by leveraging expertise, efficiency, technology, and strategic approaches to revenue cycle management. It enables healthcare providers to focus on delivering high-quality patient care while optimizing financial performance and practice growth.

Frances Latimer, CEO
​At Open Door Billing, we are driven by the belief that mental health care should reflect the diversity of the communities it serves. I founded this company with a passion for bridging the gap in mental health services by ensuring cultural considerations are at the forefront of care. A major challenge in today’s system is the shortage of mental health professionals who not only share their clients’ backgrounds—whether in terms of race, faith, or culture—but who also accept health insurance. These barriers limit both access to critical care and the financial growth of these professionals.
​
Credentialing (the process used by insurance panels to qualify you) is a crucial step toward breaking down these barriers and expanding access to healing communities. My mission is to support you in navigating the complexities of credentialing and optimizing your practice’s revenue cycle management.
By streamlining reimbursements and minimizing administrative burdens, I am dedicated to helping your practice thrive, so you can focus on what matters most: providing care to those who need it.
​
We collaborate closely with non-profit (501c3) organizations, as well as Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) providers, to assist with the credentialing process for Medi-Cal. By helping other start-ups and non-profits navigate the complexities of insurance credentialing and reimbursement, we are making strides toward equitable healthcare access for all.
