Yardi Claims Manager, the newest addition to the Yardi Senior Living Suite, announced a plan to help staff at senior living communities better manage reimbursements for care provided to Medicaid recipients.
With Claims Manager, senior living providers can more easily navigate the complexities of Medicaid reimbursement. A federal program with implementations that vary by state, Medicaid has requirements that can be difficult and time-consuming to process. This effect is magnified for providers with communities in multiple states. Claims Manager eases the burden by creating a centralized record of all Medicaid residents and providing state-specific claim templates.
The goal of Claims Manager allows staff to:
- Manage all Medicaid claims in one secure place
- Perform submission pre-checks to catch errors early
- Track a resident’s leave of absence history for correct billing
- Submit claims electronically without the need for a clearinghouse
- Monitor claim statuses with notifications of progress
- Keep full resident records for review or audit purposes
Claims Manager is built into Yardi Voyager Senior Housing, a comprehensive property management and financial accounting system.
“Claims Manager is a welcome extension of the electronic Medicaid management that Voyager Senior Housing already provides to our clients,” said Ray Elliott, vice president of senior living at Yardi. “The end-to-end integration, from real-time service charges to payment reconciliation, means that staff can process claims faster and increase accuracy.”
