: ACCOUNT RECEIVABLE
: Nmanju August 14, 2009, 07:31:56 AM
Hi,

I am working on Account Receivable. Can anybody tell me what all AR reports one need to maintain, also what AR reports need to be sent (Daily, Monthly) to the Provider as well. And the best way to follow up on AR. I generate monthly pending charges reports and follow up accordingly and make XLs for each month. Please advice. I shall be obliged if could help me.


Thanks,

Manju

It varies per provider. That is something you have to determine when you sign a client. It also depends on the capabilities of your software

Yes I agree with Charlene.

I normally send a general A/R but I also will give my clients a patient responsibility A/R and then occasionally a client will want to know the numbers based on a specific carrier.  It really depends on how your database is setup and your PM Software in the output of the reports.
 
If I am working A/R I like to have the data to differentiate patient/insurance and then I like to have an A/R by carrier. This helps me find the obvious up front problems.
