Maine kept its Medicaid program fee-for-service, runs one of the nation's oldest patient populations, and supports a payer mix with genuinely local players. We handle eligibility, coding, claims, denials, AR, and credentialing end to end.
Medicare billing in Maine
Maine Part B claims are processed by National Government Services (NGS), the Medicare Administrative Contractor for Jurisdiction K. We file to NGS daily and screen against its local coverage determinations. With the oldest median age in America, Maine's Medicare book is proportionally huge, and Medicare Advantage is led by Martin's Point Generations, Anthem, UnitedHealthcare, and Humana, so MA enrollment is verified at eligibility on every senior visit.
MaineCare billing
MaineCare pays claims fee-for-service directly through the state's MIHMS system, with no MCO layer. That concentrates everything on MaineCare's own edits, prior-authorization rules, and filing windows, and on keeping provider enrollment current in MIHMS. Expansion added a significant adult population. Our team files MaineCare claims daily, first-pass clean, inside the state's deadlines.
Commercial payers we bill in Maine
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield of Maine anchors the commercial market, joined by Harvard Pilgrim (Point32), Cigna, Aetna, and two distinctly Maine players: Community Health Options (the member-run co-op) and Martin's Point Health Care. MaineHealth and Northern Light system relationships shape referrals statewide, and we bill around them cleanly for independent and affiliated practices alike.
Specialties we serve across Maine
We bill 25+ specialties across Maine, including its highest-volume fields: family medicine, internal medicine, cardiology (heavy in an aging state), orthopedics, behavioral health, physical therapy, and urgent care.
Why Maine practices choose PRMS
Maine's recurring leaks: MaineCare claims that fail state edits and sit uncorrected, MIHMS enrollment lapses that stop payment, and senior-heavy books where MA plan routing gets missed. We keep MaineCare first-pass clean, MIHMS current, and MA plans verified. Credentialing with MaineCare and every major Maine payer is free for billing clients.
Maine medical billing FAQs

Which Medicare contractor covers Maine?
National Government Services (Jurisdiction K) processes Maine Part B claims, with its local coverage determinations built into our scrubbing.
Do you bill Community Health Options and Martin's Point?
