Why Infusion Is Different

Infusion billing breaks generic RCM workflows.

01

Buy-and-bill exposure

One denied biologic can tie up tens of thousands in drug cost.

J1745 · $14,820 at risk
02

Prior auth drift

Renewals lapse mid-treatment cycle. Nobody notices until the denial.

Auth expires in 9 days
03

Payer-specific denials

Every payer denies differently. Generic queues hide the pattern.

Medical necessity · UHC
04

Underpayments hidden in remits

Paid-but-short becomes a write-off without line-level review.

The Workflow

One path. Ruby owns every step.

Our team works the queue. You see status, not busywork.

Your View

You don't need another tool to manage. You need to know it's handled.

01 · Inside Ruby's operation

Every claim has an owner, status, next action, and deadline.

Worked by our team, not yours. Nothing waits in a spreadsheet. Nothing depends on memory.
