Greater New Orleans & Southeast Louisiana
New Orleans' healthcare market was fundamentally reshaped by Hurricane Katrina and has been rebuilt around Ochsner Health System, LCMC Health (University Medical Center, Touro, Children's Hospital), and Tulane Medical Center. Ochsner's rapid expansion has made it the dominant integrated delivery system in the region, operating its own health plan alongside provider services.
The post-Katrina healthcare landscape created unique opportunities for innovative care models, but also left legacy billing and collections challenges related to displaced patient populations and rebuilt infrastructure.
Key specialties in demand: Cardiology, oncology, gastroenterology, infectious disease, behavioral health
Baton Rouge & Central Louisiana
Baton Rouge's healthcare market is served by Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center (Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System), Baton Rouge General Medical Center, and Lane Regional Medical Center. The state capital's government workforce, LSU community, and petrochemical industry employees create a diverse payer mix of state employee plans, university coverage, and industrial employer-sponsored insurance.
Louisiana's petrochemical corridor between Baton Rouge and New Orleans generates significant Workers' Compensation billing volume related to industrial workplace injuries.
Key specialties in demand: Primary care, orthopedics, occupational medicine, family medicine, pulmonology
Shreveport & Northwest Louisiana
Shreveport's healthcare market is anchored by Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport, Willis-Knighton Health System, and CHRISTUS Shreveport-Bossier Health System. The region serves a predominantly rural northwest Louisiana population with significant healthcare access challenges, higher uninsured rates, and heavier reliance on Medicaid than southern metro areas.
Cross-border patient flow from East Texas and southern Arkansas adds multi-state billing complexity for practices in the Shreveport-Bossier City area.
Key specialties in demand: Family medicine, cardiology, general surgery, behavioral health, rural health

Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Billing in Louisiana
How does Louisiana Medicaid (Healthy Louisiana) managed care billing work?
Healthy Louisiana is the state's Medicaid managed care program, operating through MCOs including Aetna Better Health, AmeriHealth Caritas, Healthy Blue (BCBSLA), Louisiana Healthcare Connections (Centene), and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan. Each MCO has distinct authorization requirements, fee schedules, and claims processes. Medtransic maintains Healthy Louisiana-specialized billing staff who manage each plan's unique requirements for our Louisiana providers.
What is Louisiana's surprise billing law (Act 374) and how does it affect practices?
Louisiana Act 374 protects patients from surprise out-of-network bills for emergency services and establishes a dispute resolution process for payment disagreements between providers and insurers. The law limits patient liability to in-network cost-sharing amounts for covered surprise billing scenarios. Medtransic ensures all applicable Louisiana claims comply with Act 374 and navigates the dispute resolution process to secure fair reimbursement.
How does Ochsner Health System's market dominance affect billing in Louisiana?
Ochsner Health System is the largest health system in Louisiana, operating over 40 hospitals and 100+ clinics with its own Ochsner Health Plan. This vertically integrated model influences payer dynamics, contract rates, and referral patterns across the state. Medtransic helps Louisiana independent practices compete effectively alongside Ochsner by optimizing revenue cycle performance and payer contract positioning.
How does hurricane season affect medical billing in Louisiana?
Louisiana's annual hurricane season creates recurring billing continuity challenges, including displaced patient records, damaged infrastructure, and insurance coverage extensions under emergency declarations. CMS and state agencies issue emergency billing waivers that require rapid process adjustments. Medtransic maintains disaster-resilient billing operations and tracks all emergency waivers and filing extensions to protect our Louisiana providers' revenue during and after storms.
What are the timely filing deadlines for Louisiana insurance claims?
Louisiana commercial payer timely filing deadlines vary from 90 to 365 days by contract. Medicare requires filing within 12 months, and Healthy Louisiana MCOs generally require submission within 365 days of the date of service. Emergency declarations may extend filing deadlines temporarily. Medtransic submits clean claims within 24-48 hours to ensure no revenue is lost, and tracks all emergency extensions during hurricane season.
How much do medical billing services cost in Louisiana?
Medical billing outsourcing for Louisiana practices typically ranges from 4-8% of monthly collections, depending on practice size, specialty, and claim volume. Medtransic offers transparent, competitive pricing with no hidden fees. Most Louisiana practices see a net revenue increase after partnering with us because of reduced denials and faster collections.
