About This Automation

Patient payment and statement processing pulls overdue balances, verifies insurance postings, and generates statements before manually distributing them by email, text, and mail. Each account requires review and follow up, which strains billing staff time and delays cash collection.

An automated version flags overdue balances, generates and delivers statements, sends escalating reminders, and reconciles payments as they arrive. The result is faster, more consistent patient billing with fewer errors and less staff effort.

Key features
Flags overdue patient balances automatically once they cross the aging threshold
Generates accurate statements pulled directly from current ledger figures
Delivers statements by email or mail based on patient preference
Sends escalating reminders to accounts that remain unpaid
Reconciles incoming payments against patient ledgers and daily deposits
Logs every statement and reminder for full audit visibility

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Balance Flaggedtrigger

A nightly sync flags any patient balance sitting unpaid 30 days after insurance adjudication.

2. Statement Drafted By

The Statement Generation & Delivery pulls the balance and history and drafts a personalized statement.

3. Statement Emailed

The finished statement is sent to the patient's email on file, or queued for print if no email exists.

4. Reminder Checks Payment Status

The Payment Reminder & Reconciliation checks and daily to see if the balance was paid.

5. Reminder Sent

If the balance is still unpaid after 7 days, a text reminder with a payment link goes out automatically.

6. Payment Reconciled

Once paid, the payment posts to the patient ledger and matches automatically against the daily deposit.
