Write-Off Management

Don't Leave Money on the Table

For many ABA practices, 20-40% of revenue comes directly from families—copays, coinsurance, and deductibles. VGPM ensures you capture every dollar with automated invoicing and persistent but professional follow-up. With VGPM's Stripe integration, families can pay invoices online through the client portal—making it easier to collect and faster to reconcile.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

When a session note is completed, VGPM automatically generates a claim item with all required data: billing codes, modifiers, units, dates, provider credentials, and authorization reference. Claims batch automatically based on your submission schedule and are sent electronically to payers. You see every claim's status in real-time—from pending to submitted to paid.

Denials are caught instantly when the ERA (Electronic Remittance Advice) is processed. VGPM categorizes each denial by reason code (CO-4, CO-16, CO-18, etc.) and shows you exactly what went wrong.

Yes. When an ERA shows a patient responsibility amount (copay, coinsurance, deductible), VGPM automatically generates a patient invoice. Families can pay via credit card, ACH, check, or online through the client portal using VGPM's Stripe integration. You can set up payment plans for larger balances. Automated reminder emails go out for unpaid invoices, and you control the timing and frequency.

The Claims List shows all claims with their current status, aging buckets (0-30, 31-60, 61-90, 90+ days), and expected payment amounts. Filter by payer, status, date range, or provider to find exactly what you need. The totals panel gives you real-time summaries of billed, pending, and collected amounts.

VGPM supports unlimited insurance payers with payer-specific billing rules. Each payer can have different submission formats, timely filing limits, and authorization requirements. The system tracks which clients have which payers and applies the correct rules automatically.

Multiple validation layers catch errors before they become denials. Authorization validation ensures you never bill beyond approved units. Credential checking confirms the rendering provider is credentialed with the payer. Date-of-service validation catches late submissions before timely filing limits expire. If something's wrong, you see a clear warning—not a denial 30 days later.

A clean claim is one that's accepted by the payer without needing corrections or resubmission. Industry average is around 80%. VGPM practices typically achieve 95%+ because the system validates claims before submission. Higher clean claim rates mean faster payment, less rework, and better cash flow.

VGPM tracks three types of write-offs: contractual adjustments (automatic from ERA), bad debt write-offs (uncollectable patient balances), and courtesy write-offs (hardship cases). Each requires appropriate approval and creates an audit trail. Write-off reports help you monitor trends and protect against revenue leakage.
