Recover More. Review Less.
Millions Recovered for Medical-Legal Providers
Physicians First Choice and Effingo Technology help QMEs, AMEs, and medical legal management companies maximize profitability by increasing revenue and reducing physician review time.
Physicians First Choice has recovered millions of dollars from denied, disputed, underpaid, and aging medical legal receivables that many providers had already written off as uncollectible. In numerous cases, our team has identified additional recoverable revenue from files that were years old and previously believed to be fully billed.
Recognizing the growing burden that voluminous medical records place on physicians, we developed and created Effingo Technology, an advanced record analysis platform designed specifically for the medical-legal industry. Effingo identifies and removes duplicate, filler, and non-substantive pages from medical records, helping physicians spend less time reviewing redundant documentation and more time performing billable medical-legal work.
Together, our revenue recovery expertise and proprietary technology provide a unique advantage for medical legal providers seeking to improve efficiency, increase profitability, and maximize the value of every case.
Recover forgotten revenue. Reduce physician review time. Increase profitability.
Whether you are attempting to recover aging accounts receivable or improve physician productivity, our combined solutions help medical-legal providers strengthen their bottom line.
Physicians First Choice collection and litigation services are offered on a contingency basis. We are so confident in our ability to deliver results that we assume the financial risk. If we do not successfully recover funds on your behalf, there is no fee for our revenue recovery services. Our compensation is earned only after your office receives payment.
Before you write off a receivable or assign another physician to review thousands of unnecessary pages, let us show you what is still recoverable.

"As a Qualified Medical Evaluator, I was delighted to learn that Physician's First Choice has been the driving champion for years of billing solutions in our large, multi-specialty practice. When I reached out regarding an overdue invoice for an Independent Medical Evaluation, I received an immediate and detailed response characterized by exemplary personalization and kindness. The follow-up, communication, and persistence could not have been better. Perhaps the most delightful surprise was the reasonable fee. As someone who has worked with Physician's First Choice in both the large group and private practice setting, I cannot recommend PFC enough. No physician or business wants unpaid invoices, but if they happen, Physician's First Choice is now our only choice."
