History

Elizabeth Ann Starr, current owner and president, founded Starr Medical Management, Inc. in 1989. Prior to starting Starr Medical Management, she was the Office Manager to a general surgical group in the Ayer area for 14 years. As Office Manager, she developed, implemented and managed all aspects of medical office management  including:

• Patient care and scheduling
• Billing and administrative systems
• Personnel hiring/training/management and computerization.

In that role she developed a close working relationship with members of the medical staff at the local community hospital.

As major changes to the Medical Billing processes occurred within the insurance companies which impacted physician billing, Ms. Starr kept pace with those changes and soon recognized the need to assist physicians with the increasing billing and reporting demands. Calling upon her established relationships, she was able to start Starr Medical Management.

Ms. Starr's goal was to provide a service that would relieve physicians and their staff of the billing and management tasks thus providing the practice more time to concentrate on patient care. By outsourcing the billing function, practices could cut expenses and virtually eliminate disruption of patient care from phone calls regarding billing questions and issues.

Starr Medical Management today is a very sound company of billing professionals who provide service to multi-specialty physician practices. The company strongly adheres to and maintains its initial goals, closely monitoring their client's statistics to assure an excellent quality of service. Our employees are measured based on the standards we set and how those standards are reflected in the Client’s monthly statistics. We work closely with our client offices and and are accountable to them. In order to optimize our effectiveness, we assess current billing processes within each practice and develop a smooth transition to our protocol and standards.
