Problem Statement

Payments must be matched and posted accurately and promptly, and manual posting and balancing is slow and exception-heavy; unposted or misapplied cash distorts accounts receivable, ties up credit balances, and delays a clear view of what has truly been collected. The weekly EKG remit doesn't arrive in a directly postable format: it has to be downloaded, the payment lines separated from the zero-pay (and zero-balance) lines, the debit details scraped out, and the whole thing reshaped into a file the patient accounting system can ingest. Doing that preparation by hand each week is tedious and error-prone, and any mistake in the file flows straight into misposted cash.

Automation Solution

This automation downloads the weekly EKG remit, separates payment from zero-pay lines (escalating zero-balance accounts), scrapes the debit details, and prepares a macro-ready file for posting into the patient accounting system.
