Home care billing
WellSky billing services
WellSky billing services from Remitwright follow the WellSky product your agency runs.
Medicaid waiver, VA or private pay: tell us your mix.
On WellSky Home Health that means the Notice of Admission accepted on time and a claim for each 30-day period of care, with managed care claims alongside Medicare. On WellSky Hospice it means claims, remittances matched to claims and payments posted payer by payer. On WellSky Personal Care it means visits reconciled to authorizations and EVV, then claims to Medicaid and other payers. A dedicated biller works in your system on a login you issue, and you keep WellSky. WellSky billing is one part of our home care billing services.

- Home care and home health
Every day
What your biller does in WellSky every day
- For each Medicare home health admission, get the Notice of Admission submitted and accepted within five calendar days, then bill a claim for each 30-day period of care and track the last one to payment
- Use the referral and authorization records in WellSky Home Health to check that each episode is authorized before the visits are billed
- On WellSky Hospice, work claim submission issues, match each remittance to its claim and post payments for each payer
- Reconcile personal care visits to the schedule, the authorization and the EVV record, so unverified visits and unbilled hours surface before the claim is built
- Clear EVV exceptions in your state's system before a claim is released, and route the recurring causes to scheduling and to the caregivers involved
- Send personal care claims to Medicaid and other third-party payers through WellSky's clearinghouse connection, and work the rejections that come back
- Post remittances, electronic or paper, read each CARC and RARC, and route every denial with its reason to the right queue
- Track authorizations and VA referrals by units and dates and request renewals before care runs past the end date
- Pull the weekly report from WellSky's reports: visits delivered, billed, paid and held, by payer and by line of business
Access
Access and security
Your data, your systems
Patient data stays in your systems. Your biller works inside your own software, clearinghouse and payer portals and never exports, downloads or stores claim files, remittances or patient lists on Remitwright devices or systems.
- BAA signed before any access
- A user you create and can remove
- MFA on every login that supports it
- No claim files or patient lists exported
In WellSky
- WellSky stays licensed to your agency with your data in it; the biller is a user you create and scope to billing
- That login runs with multi-factor authentication, shows in your user list, and can be revoked by you at any time
- Claims go to payers; nothing else leaves the system, and no copy of your data sits anywhere Remitwright owns
- A business associate agreement is signed before the user is created
Where the biller steps in
What WellSky does not do, and the biller does
Managed care rules differ plan by plan, and the biller keeps them: filing windows, documentation requests and claim edits per plan
Where your state requires its own EVV system or aggregator, exceptions are cleared in that system under its own login, and the claim waits until they are
VA referrals are matched and renewed by a routine the biller runs around the system, not by a field inside it
Appeals, records requests and payer portal work are done in the payer's portal or by letter, outside WellSky
