The smallest state, a state-run rehabilitation center, and a case-management caseload where everyone knows everyone.

The receivables screen: ten bills, one payer check covering four claimants, one short-pay flagged, $674.07 still owed.
One check, four claimants, one short-pay caught at $16.14, $674.07 still owed. Invented names, real workflow — and the same screen whether you invoice a TPA in Rhode Island or an MCO in Ohio.

Every one of those rows is typed once, as it happens. The daily log writes itself as you go, the weekly narrative log builds in your own Word template, the invoice fills with the right units and the right payer block, and the receivable exists the moment the bill leaves. The whole chain →

What the Donley Center is

A state rehabilitation center leaves no private billing market behind it.

Rhode Island’s vocational rehabilitation is delivered by the state, at the Donley Center. There is no carrier-funded private market to build a practice on, and pretending otherwise in the smallest professional community in the country would be a short-lived strategy.

Beacon Mutual and the private carriers pay for case management. That works here today, with no state pack.

The payer directory

One check, many claimants. Whichever of these names is on the envelope, the check covers a dozen files at once. You record it once, tick the bills it pays, and anything short is flagged with the exact gap and the original form attached, ready to rebill. How that screen works.

Payer fax numbers and billing addresses go stale faster than any page can keep up, so we publish them only where we keep them current — today that is Ohio’s nine MCOs. Your Rhode Island payers, their submission addresses and their quirks get set up during onboarding, from your own files.

What is genuinely for sale here today

Case files, adjusters, mileage, invoices.

Nurse case management billing works in Rhode Island today: activity grid, itemised invoice, aging by payer, mileage and wait time on their own lines.

The activity grid

Field visit, telephonic call, wait time at the appointment, the miles there and back — logged once, with the claim number, the adjuster and the referral source attached as you type.

The itemised invoice

In the format the payer asks for, from the same entries, with the activity log behind it. No CMS-1500 unless your payer wants one — and some do.

Aging by payer

Beacon Mutual, the carriers and the TPAs, each with billed, paid and still-owed, and an aging list that names who is sitting on your money.

It is the same week Dana works in Ohio with different nouns: case files instead of claimants, adjusters instead of MCO coordinators, billable hours and mileage instead of W-codes. The nurse case manager page has the whole workflow.
