Once payment is received through EFT or paper check, our payment posting specialists organize the corresponding payment and remittance information.
Post Accurate Payments. Protect Revenue.
Your practice bills $300. The insurer pays $220. If your team posts the payment without reviewing the ERA/EOB, an underpayment or incorrect adjustment can go unnoticed—leaving potential revenue unrecovered. That’s what eClaim Solution payment posting services prevent: no discrepancies, no unnecessary write-offs, no delays. Our payment posting specialists thoroughly review every detail before posting payments to your account, protecting your revenue to the fullest extent.

Payment posting is more than recording payments; it’s about accurately reflecting what was paid, what was adjusted, what remains outstanding, and where discrepancies may require attention. At eClaim Solution, our payment posting specialists always verify the ERA/EOB statements, record what’s been paid, and check it against the applicable contracted reimbursement terms to ensure accurate payment processing. See how our experts turn every payment into accurate revenue data;
If payments aren’t posted on time, your practice can lose visibility into outstanding balances, delay follow-up, and miss opportunities to identify payment discrepancies. Here are some of the most common payment posting challenges healthcare providers face:
Payers issue payments along with ERA/EOB information, but delays in posting them to patient accounts can create billing and A/R inaccuracies and make it harder to identify outstanding balances that still need attention.
The insurer paid the amount, but you don’t know which patient it belongs to because the ERA/EOB statements are missing or the details don’t match the bank deposit, leading to delays in posting payments.
Payment poster enters incorrect contractual adjustments; for example, instead of $200, they accidentally enter $120, which can cause the $80 difference to be incorrectly written off or transferred to patient responsibility.
Payment posting can uncover discrepancies that require further review. A payer may reimburse less than the expected amount, issue an overpayment, or make a duplicate payment. If these discrepancies aren’t identified and reconciled, inaccurate balances can remain in the system, and potential revenue recovery opportunities may be missed.
Incorrect or missing data during payment entry into the billing software, or failure to record financial data during the reconciliation process, often leads to incorrect payment posting.
Due to the higher volume of claims and paperwork, reading every EOB manually and reconciling payments with a minimum or inexperienced staff ultimately causes payment delays and disrupts cash flow.
Our payment posting specialists do more than enter payments. They look for claims that haven’t been paid in full, partial payments, write-offs, and transactions awaiting review. Here’s what we do to ensure a prompt and accurate payment posting process:
Once payment is received, we verify the available payment details against the ERA/EOB, write-offs, and contractual adjustments to identify missing information or discrepancies before posting.
We review ERA/EOB details, payment amounts, adjustments, and applicable reimbursement terms to identify potential underpayments or incorrect adjustments. If there are any, our experts route these discrepancies for underpayment review and recovery.
Before posting payments to patient accounts, we verify copays, deductibles, and coinsurance amounts to prevent billing discrepancies or incorrect charges.
If our payment posting expert finds any underpayment, overpayment, or rejected claim, we route it to the designated denial management team to investigate and follow up with payers, making the process smoother and faster.
eClaim Solution offers comprehensive payment posting services that help practices and providers improve revenue cycle and boost cash flow, while reducing AR days. Here’s what our medical payment posting solutions include;
Our insurance payment posting experts check the reimbursements once your payer sends them and verify them against the EOB and ERA statements. Also, our staff checks the outstanding balances, contractual adjustments, and write-offs (if any) to maintain accurate financial records.

07
Our payment posting and reconciliation services ensure every step is accurate and handled effectively for a smooth process, so no revenue leakage.
Once payment is received through EFT or paper check, our payment posting specialists organize the corresponding payment and remittance information.
The posted payment is then verified against the electronic remittance advice (ERA) files or EOB (explanation of benefits) to ensure each amount is entered correctly into the medical billing software.
Before posting payments to the EMR/EHR system, our experts create a batch for the rendered service (e.g., Batch #104 - Aetna EFT - $12,500.00). It helps us ensure that every payment related to this batch is correctly posted to the system, making reconciliation smoother.
The amount data is applied to individual patient accounts (either via automated ERA 835 auto-posting or manual EOB keying), which involves patient responsibility, paid, allowed, and contractual adjustments.
If there's any rejected or denied claim, posters identify the denial codes (CARC) or (RARC) and send them to the denials management team for appeal or correction.
Remaining balances are transferred to the appropriate payer or patient responsibility based on the adjudicated claim details, with patient statements generated according to the practice's billing workflow.
Once the payment is posted to the billing software, our experts cross-check the total entries in the system to ensure they match the batch target. If it matches, then the batch is balanced and closed.
To ensure no amount will be unpaid, our experts verify that the entries in the billing software match the bank accounts and ERA records. If anything is missing or recorded incorrectly, our experts move it to unapplied cash for further investigation and resolution.

Let our payment posting specialists review your current workflow and identify opportunities to improve accuracy, turnaround, reconciliation, and revenue visibility.
Payment posting is the process of recording and applying insurance and patient payments, adjustments, and patient responsibility to the correct accounts based on ERA/EOB and other payment information. The process also involves identifying discrepancies that may require follow-up.
Payment posting services involve hiring a third-party billing company to manage the practice’s financial records, including patient responsibility and insurer payments, within the billing software.
Payment posting can generally be performed manually or through automated workflows. Manual payment posting refers to the line-by-line entry of amounts, including contractual adjustments, allowed and paid amounts, into the billing software from the electronic remittance advice to ensure accurate patient billing. Another is automated payment posting, which directly fetches electronic remittance files and enters the amounts into billing systems, avoiding manual data-entry errors and resulting in more accurate reimbursements.
At eClaim Solution, our experts review ERA/EOB details, post insurance and patient payments to the correct accounts, verify adjustments and patient responsibility, and reconcile payments with claims and deposits to keep your records accurate.
