Month End and Financial Close Processing
Along with comprehensive Revenue Cycle solutions, we also provide our clients the ability to automate the complex month-end task of calculating accrual revenue including DNFB and in-house accounts. These net revenue numbers, once calculated, can be used to post automatically back to your GL and other financial systems.

“In less than 4 months, $1.37 million of underpayments had been appealed and $1.24 million of that actually collected. I have every reason to believe that we can increase revenues by $3-6 million annually using Concuity’s solution.”
—Mike Butler Chief Financial Officer, Providence Health System
Interface to all of your Financial Systems
As more and more legacy systems become out-dated and not able to handle the more complex contracts, an increasing number of providers are in need of a system that can net down their AR using true, accurate numbers. Once accounts have been identified as final billed in ClearContracts, use the expected reimbursement, adjustments and contractual allowances calculated in ClearContracts to net down your accounts receivable in your host system.
Provide Powerful Reporting
Month-end reporting is always a daunting task, especially when facility must determine the exact balance for any given account that may span multiple accounting periods. As part of the ClearContracts Suite, our customers receive power ad-hoc and standard reporting that can be run automatically pre and post close to ensure accurate management reporting and financial closing review. ClearContracts allows users to create reports that can be viewed, giving visibility down to the account and transaction levels.
Flexibility to support your specific month end close processing
Clients can use contractual adjustments calculated in the ClearContracts to net down their AR in their host systems, thus affecting their general ledger. ClearContracts now becomes a facility’s sub-ledger and keeping the two systems in sync is essential to good accounting practice.
With ClearContracts our customers are able to define their own accounting periods as well as create specific rules and reports to run automatically on these defined dates pre and post close. These accounting periods can also be defined at the account level for accurate revenue recognition and financial reporting.
