Modern LTC Pharmacy Billing Tips

What this video covers

This video shares practical billing tips for today's LTC pharmacy environment, covering eligibility workflows, census management, claim scrubbing, rejection handling, and remittance reconciliation. It is meant for pharmacy owners, billing managers, and staff who want specific process improvements they can put in place this month. The tips apply whether billing stays in-house or moves to a dedicated team.

• Recheck eligibility monthly. Resident coverage changes mid-stay more often than most pharmacies expect, and monthly rechecks stop wrong-payer claims early.
• Hold a 48-hour rule. Every rejection gets touched within two business days. Aged rejections are where LTC pharmacy revenue quietly dies.
• Reconcile against contracts. Post payments against contracted rates, not just against the claim, so underpayments surface instead of slipping through.
• Document your workflow. A written billing playbook survives staff turnover and makes it possible to delegate or outsource without losing quality.
