About Us

Experienced, Comprehensive Billing

  

The Billing Group (TBG) has been a full-service billing company for over 20 years. Our corporate office is located in Fountain Valley (Orange County) California. We provide services to medical providers throughout the country. Our services are available to all medical specialties, and facilities. 

The Highest Standards

 

There is no practice, facility too small or too large to benefit from the personal and professional billing services that TBG provides. Our clients see an increase in revenue of at least 20 percent within the first 90 days of service as well as a significant decrease in overhead. As a true extension of the provider's practice, TBG will give the patients and staff of the practice a truly personal and upfront experience. We only bill you on what you collect. Charging a client a percentage motivates us to collect as much as possible for all of our clients.
