REIMBURSEMENTS, GRANTS, DIRECT-CARE PAYROLL. HANDLED.
Health & Human Services
Accounting for home care, mental health, behavioral health, and human services agencies. Reimbursement schedules that reconcile, grants that stay compliant, and direct-care payroll that pays your team right the first time.
Reimbursement schedules do not move like invoices. Grant funding has rules attached. Payroll for direct-care staff brings in classification questions most generic firms do not think to ask. We set up the chart of accounts, payroll structure, and reporting so reimbursements reconcile, grants stay compliant, and your direct-care team gets paid right the first time.
WHAT WE SET UP:
- Reimbursement and grant tracking with restricted-fund visibility
- Payroll structure tuned for direct-care staff, contractors, and credentialing
- Reporting that holds up to grantors, auditors, and the state
- Software: QuickBooks Online or Xero, integrated with EHR and billing platforms
WHAT MAKES HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES DIFFERENT
Four things generic accountants get wrong in health & human services.
Health and human services accounting is not standard small-business accounting with a nonprofit template. Reimbursements, grants, direct-care payroll, and state reporting each carry rules that generalists miss. Here’s what we set up before your first close.
Reimbursement reconciliation
Medicaid, Medicare, and third-party payers reimburse on their own schedules, at their own rates, with denials and adjustments that never match your invoicing. We reconcile against remits weekly so cash matches revenue, and you know what’s aging.
Grant compliance
Restricted funds have rules. Federal grants have deeper rules. Reporting requirements vary by grantor. We track by grant, by program, and by fiscal period, so allowable expenses stay allowable and audit findings stay off your ledger.
Direct-care payroll
Direct-care staff, PRN workers, contractors, and credentialed clinicians each need different payroll handling. Certification tracking, exempt versus non-exempt classification, and payroll taxes across states all live in the setup, not the fixes.
State & grantor reporting
State licensing boards, HHS grantors, and your board all expect different reports. We set up the chart of accounts and reporting cadence so the same clean data produces every report, without last-minute rework.
