Return to Sender


Reduce your undeliverable and returned mail
Did you know that according to the United States Postal Service, 17% of Americans change addresses annually? Whether it's for business, family or personal reasons, as a society we are on the move and changing mailing addresses more often than ever before. The unfortunate side effect of this is that more and more pieces of important mail are being classified as undeliverable and returned to the sender because of outdated addresses. For providers, this can mean a painful increase in bad-debt and self-pay cases where no new address is available.

Collection agencies can sometimes help recover the otherwise lost revenue by utilizing highly complex skip tracing methods to find the person, but the added overhead can greatly reduce any potential benefits. Additionally, returned mail can create a time-consuming task for your staff which takes them away from focusing on patients and delivering the best care possible.

Eliminate returned mail handling
Emdeon Return Mail Manager can eliminate 100% of your returned mail handling and help find up-to-date addresses for most mail marked undeliverable. Instead of mail being returned to you, it is sent directly to our facility for analysis and to initiate skip tracing. Once we find the up-to-date information for that person we can automatically remail the documents. After remailing, we then provide you with a detailed report of the status of each account, including a custom file format available for forwarding directly to your revenue recovery partners.

With the power of Emdeon Return Mail Manager you can make sure that more of your statements and communications are delivered, which can lead to collecting more self-pay revenue quickly and efficiently.
