Most practices are already familiar with CCM. What they don't know is how many other CMS-authorized care programs their patients qualify for and aren't receiving — RPM, BHI, TCM, and more. We implement and manage all 11, so your patients get the full continuum of care CMS already pays for.
Chronic Care Management is the highest-volume CMS care management program available to primary care. If your patients have two or more chronic conditions and are 65+, they qualify — and CMS pays monthly for the time your team coordinates their care.
If you're already running CCM with another vendor, ask yourself one question: what else are they helping you identify for your patients? If the answer is nothing — or just RPM — your patients may be eligible for care they aren't receiving today.

2025 Medicare PFS national averages. Not a guarantee of reimbursement.
Remote Patient Monitoring adds approximately ~$129/month per active patient on top of CCM via FDA-cleared devices. We handle device procurement, setup, data review, and billing.
67% of your Medicare patients likely qualify for CCM. A practice with 150 Medicare patients typically has 90+ patients eligible for continuous chronic care coordination — representing $5,600–$12,000/month in CMS reimbursement once they're properly enrolled.
We help identify which of the 11 CMS-authorized programs each patient qualifies for, not just CCM — so your practice can offer the full range of care they're eligible for.

Every program is billed only when a patient meets CMS eligibility criteria and the care is documented by a licensed member of our clinical team — never based on what's billable, only on what a patient actually qualifies for and needs.
From eligibility screening to payment posting — a typical practice is live within 2–3 weeks and receiving first payments within 30 days.
Powered by AI-assisted eligibility screening, documentation, and pre-submission billing review.
Ancillary Experts was founded in 2016 after years working directly alongside independent primary care physicians. Not as a clinician — but close enough to see exactly where the system was failing them.
Practice after practice was delivering excellent patient care and collecting a fraction of what CMS had authorized for it. The programs existed. The reimbursement was there. The infrastructure to capture it wasn't.
We built Ancillary Experts to close that gap — with a team that handles every step of the process, from clinical care coordination to certified coding and compliance. It's a decade of knowing exactly which programs get billed, which get missed, and why.
The difference: we own the entire process and are accountable to your results.
