We see pediatric billing differently.
Meet Emily, Co-founder of Altus Pediatric Billing
For me, pediatric billing isn’t just a business — it’s personal.
I grew up watching my mom become a pediatrician. I saw her go through medical school, complete her residency, and join a large multi-specialty practice. When I was in middle school, she faced a critical decision: stay in the security of that group, or step out on her own to build something more personal.
She chose independence. She started her own pediatric practice — and poured everything into it.
But it wasn’t easy. When she wasn’t seeing patients, she was chasing down insurance payments, fighting confusing denials, and trying to keep the doors open. The billing burden was enormous, and no one cared about the outcome as much as she did.
One day, an unexpected surgery forced her to step away — and my dad, an attorney, stepped in to help keep the practice afloat. What he found changed everything. He uncovered billing errors, appealed denials, and helped her get paid for the work she was already doing. It saved the practice — and laid the foundation for what eventually grew into a thriving, multi-location pediatric group.
That experience shaped everything for me.
It showed me how essential it is for pediatricians to have the right people in their corner — not just for financial success, but so they can stay focused on what matters most: caring for children.
Today, I help pediatricians fight back against broken systems and bad billing. I make sure they get paid fairly, fully, and on time — without having to chase down every claim themselves. Because pediatricians shouldn’t have to choose between excellent care and a sustainable practice.
You deserve a trusted partner who understands your mission — because they’ve lived it. And I’d be honored to be that partner.
Pediatricians rarely love their outsourced billing provider.
At Altus Pediatric Billing, we are raising the bar.
Our meticulous, relationship-based approach helps you confidently run
a better and more profitable practice.
Altus understood my frustrations from the beginning and I felt good knowing that an MBA was helping with the business side of my practice.
“Altus uses a disciplined, detailed workflow to ensure all billable services are accurately captured, billed, and paid. Our accounts receivable are now significantly better than pediatric A/R benchmarks. We enjoy a close working relationship with the Altus team. Our dedicated Altus biller is incredibly organized and tenaciously goes after every penny due to us. Altus leadership is knowledgeable and attentive. All in all an excellent partnership!”
