CONFIGURED FOR WISCONSIN DURING ONBOARDING

Wisconsin private VR specialist billing —
when DVR cannot serve, you do.

Wis. Stat. 102.61 sends the injured worker to the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation first; when DVR cannot serve, a certified private vocational rehabilitation specialist steps in — and the insurer pays your fee, the tuition and temporary total disability through the retraining.

No card. No contract. Your data stays on your computer.

Your week

Your week, in Wisconsin’s documents.

A hybrid system where your referral only exists because the public agency could not take it, and the insurer is funding three things at once.

  • 8:30 a.m.
    DVR could not serve. Referral accepted, file opened.Referral source recorded on the file, which is the first thing anyone asks about later.
  • 10:50 a.m.
    Retraining programme research and a school contact.Billable time in the grid; the tuition side of the case is the insurer’s, and the file keeps them apart.
  • 1:40 p.m.
    Progress report and a call with the adjuster about the TTD period.Two entries, one narrative, reused in the monthly report.
  • 4:25 p.m.
    Invoice to the insurer, itemised by date and activity.Aging starts the day it leaves. So does the follow-up list.
The daily activity grid: coded, timed entries at 0.1-unit precision with notes, rates and claim numbers.
The grid an Ohio caseload produces — codes at $81.90 and $91.00, 0.1-unit entries, notes in her own bracket style. In Wisconsin the codes, the rates and the form change; the row does not.

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 claim form or invoice fills with the right units and the right payer block, and the receivable exists the moment the bill leaves.

The three things the insurer is paying for

Your fee is the small line on a Wisconsin retraining case.

Under 102.61 the insurer pays the specialist, the tuition and temporary total disability through the retraining period. Your invoice is the smallest of the three and it is the one that gets questioned, because it is the one with a person’s hours in it.

Which is an argument for itemisation that answers the question before it is asked: date, activity, minutes, rate, line total, with the record behind it. Written once and identical wherever it appears.

Wisconsin publishes the certified-specialist list. Being on it is how the referral finds you; the paperwork is how the referral becomes money.

The payer directory

Who pays you in Wisconsin.

Private carriers pay the specialist, the tuition and the temporary total disability. There is no state fund here, and no fee schedule we have verified — your invoice is your rate and your record.

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 Wisconsin payers, their submission addresses and their quirks get set up during onboarding, from your own files.

Questions, answered.

Does the software track the DVR-first step?

It records the referral source on the file, which is the thing that matters later — a private referral exists because DVR could not serve, and that fact belongs in the record rather than in your memory.

Can it separate my fee from tuition and TTD?

Your fee is what you bill and what the software invoices. Tuition and temporary total disability are the insurer’s obligations, not lines on your bill, and mixing them is how invoices get questioned.

Is there a Wisconsin rehabilitation fee schedule?

Not one we have verified, which is why this page prints no rate. You bill your own rate, consistently, itemised, with the log behind it.

What does onboarding set up for Wisconsin?

Your invoice template, folder tree and naming, payer list, rates and the reports you actually send. First week, included in every plan.

Is my data in a cloud?

No — local database, your own folders, exportable forever, read-only rather than deleted if you ever cancel.
