MEREM Healthcare Solutions

Who We Are
We are MEREM Healthcare Solutions, a Birmingham, Alabama–based company founded in 2008 by experienced healthcare executives. Formerly known as Code Collect, our firm specializes in providing customized revenue cycle and operations management solutions for physician practices, ambulatory surgical centers, hospitals, and imaging facilities across the country. Our team is composed of certified billers, coders, and consultants who act as strategic partners—delivering innovation, transparency, and operational excellence in every engagement.

Our goal is to surpass the performance and accountability of traditional in-house billing departments. We achieve this by combining deep industry expertise with advanced technological practices. Regardless of the size or structure of the healthcare organization—whether a solo practitioner or a multi-location system—we provide high-performing, tailored solutions that optimize revenue and improve operational clarity.

What Services We Offer
MEREM delivers a comprehensive range of services designed to support the complete revenue cycle:

Medical Billing: Full-service support from charge entry and claim scrubbing to payment posting, patient statement generation, and denial management—ensuring accurate and prompt reimbursement.

Medical Coding: Every client receives the dedicated support of AAPC-certified coders. Our coders work within your specialty and EMR workflow, and all coding is completed within 48 hours of chart availability.

Auditing: We conduct regular coding audits to identify documentation trends, reduce denials, and enhance provider compliance.

Credentialing: We manage payer enrollments and re-credentialing processes with a focus on maintaining regulatory compliance.

Patient Pre-Collections & Call Center: Our call center team supports patients with balance inquiries, payment plan arrangements, and proactive collection strategies.

Consulting & Revenue Improvement: Our consultants assess your EMR usage, workflows, denial patterns, and billing strategies to implement targeted improvements and drive revenue growth.

We operate on a contingency-based model, meaning our compensation is a percentage of collected revenue. You pay only when we collect—ensuring that our success is directly aligned with yours.
