An agent-neutral computerized method for processing administrative data of a medical service provider, including defining standard administrative data formats for use by a medical service provider system, a coordinator system, and a plurality of practice management agent systems, in creating and processing administrative data. The method also includes creating neutral evaluation data for the agent-neutral coordinator system by tracking administrative data transferred between the medical service provider system and the practice management agent systems, wherein the administrative data is in the standard administrative data formats. The method further includes providing the neutral evaluation data to the medical service provider system for selection of a first practice management agent system from the plurality of practice management agent systems, wherein the agent-neutral coordinator system reduces financial and operating costs for switching from the first practice management agent system to a second practice management system.

A method and system for enabling a service provider to file insurance claims electronically directly with the payer rather than through a clearinghouse. The system has two components interacting with an existing practice management system of a service provider and with online claim filing systems of insurance payers. The first is a software application installed on the service provider's computer to seek out billing information and create files suitable for filing of formatted claims with the payer's web sites. The second component is a web portal that interacts with both the first component and the payers' web sites to keep the former with formatting requirements and to facilitate filing of the claims electronically. The system uses a software “cookie” to convey instructions to the first component so that it can automatically connect to the appropriate page of each payer's web site.
