From weekly claim rejections to clean submissions and faster payments—here’s how one team overhauled their billing process.
Introduction
An Adult Day Care provider in Texas was struggling with something many operations face: claims being rejected or ignored, long delays in reimbursement, and a billing workflow full of manual tasks and hidden risks.
Six months after switching to ElderSuite, their billing error rate dropped by over 90%, and their reimbursement cycle became one of the smoothest parts of their operation.
This is how they made the shift—from frustration to confidence.
The Challenge
Before ElderSuite, the provider relied on:
Paper-based attendance tracking
Manually calculated units
Claims submitted through a clearinghouse portal
Re-entry of data across multiple systems
This approach led to:
Frequent rejections due to missing or mismatched data
Claims submitted with outdated procedure codes or incomplete ZIP codes
Time lost tracking down why a claim wasn’t paid
A billing specialist constantly “putting out fires” instead of working proactively
“We were correcting more claims than we were submitting cleanly. It felt like we were always behind.”
The ElderSuite Transformation
Step 1: Catching Errors Early with Claim Scrubbing
Once they implemented ElderSuite, the provider began using the Scrub Claims feature before submitting anything. The software flagged:
Missing required data
Invalid or blank procedure codes
Claims with no units due to incomplete time entries
This changed everything—errors were fixed before submission, not after denial.
Step 2: Accurate Unit Calculation from Attendance Records
Instead of manually totaling hours, staff entered attendance times into ElderSuite. From there:
Units were calculated automatically based on predefined thresholds
Claims were generated instantly without additional data entry
Entries with missing times were flagged and couldn’t be saved until corrected
“Once we started entering times directly, we stopped second-guessing every unit. The system just worked.”
Step 3: Streamlined Reconciliation
After claims were submitted, the provider used the Reconciliation tools to match payments, resolve discrepancies, and confirm claim statuses without leaving ElderSuite.
That meant:
No more switching between portals and spreadsheets
Clear records for audits and reporting
Full control over the billing process, end to end
The Results
After six months with ElderSuite:
Billing errors dropped by 93%
Reimbursement turnaround improved by 35%
Rejected claims became rare
Billing workload was cut in half
The provider now has a repeatable, reliable billing process—and fewer surprises at the end of the month.
“For the first time, we’re not worried about billing. It runs in the background, and we can finally focus on care.”
Conclusion
ElderSuite isn’t just about creating claims. It’s about getting them right the first time—with tools that catch errors early, automate calculations, and centralize your workflow. If your team is still correcting claims after submission, it might be time to upgrade the process.
