Built Around

Accounts Billing Service was founded on a simple belief — healthcare organizations deserve a billing and revenue cycle partner that actually knows their business, answers their calls, and delivers results they can see.

Our Story

A Different Kind of
Billing Partner

Accounts Billing Service was founded in 2012 in Bainbridge, Georgia with a clear mission — to give healthcare practices across the Southeast a smarter, more personal alternative to large national billing companies.

We saw firsthand that practices were being underserved. Billing was getting outsourced to companies that didn't know the regional payer landscape, didn't train their staff properly, and weren't reachable when something went wrong. ABS was built to be the opposite of that.

From day one, we focused on early-out programs, extended business office services, and practice management — the areas where getting it right early in the revenue cycle makes the biggest difference. That focus hasn't changed.

Today ABS serves physician practices, hospital systems, and healthcare organizations across the region — with the same hands-on approach and personal accountability we've always stood for.

You know who handles your account. When something needs attention, you have a direct line — not a ticket number.

🏥

Patient-First Approach

We engage patients professionally and respectfully — protecting your reputation while improving your collections.

Local Roots,
Regional Reach

ABS was founded in Bainbridge and remains rooted here. That local foundation means we understand the regional healthcare landscape — the payers, the patient demographics, the challenges specific to practices in the Southeast — in ways a national company simply can't replicate.

Our clients can walk in the front door. Our team is reachable by phone. And our reputation is built right here, where it matters most.

"We built ABS to be the kind of company we wished existed when we were on the other side of the table — responsive, honest, and genuinely invested in the outcome."

— Cheryl Morrow, Partner, Accounts Billing Service
