Managing an ABA therapy practice demands more than exceptional clinical care—it requires strong financial systems working quietly in the background to keep your operations smooth and sustainable. At the heart of this lies a process often overlooked yet critically important: payment reconciliation. In an environment where insurance claims, client invoices, and payer reimbursements intersect, even minor mistakes can cause big disruptions. That is why having a reliable payment reconciliation tool is no longer optional—It is essential.
With AlohaABA’s purpose-built reconciliation feature, you do not have to wrestle with spreadsheets or chase down unexplained payment variances. Instead, you get a streamlined, intuitive system that aligns financial clarity with operational efficiency, help you focus more on what really matters—delivering outstanding care.
The Challenge: Fragmented Billing and Manual Matching
ABA billing can be complex. Once claims are submitted, the wait begins. Payments arrive days or even weeks later, often with varying reimbursement amounts or partial denials. The traditional process of manually matching each payment against its corresponding claim is not only time- consuming, but also prone to human error. Over time, this results in missed revenue, unresolved denials, and tangled financial records.
Manual reconciliation also places a heavy burden on administrative staff. Time that could be better spent managing client needs or improving team workflows often gets consumed by data entry and backtracking payment histories. It is a drain on morale—and your bottom line.

Behind the Scenes: How It Works in AlohaABA
Every reconciliation journey in AlohaABA begins with clean data. Patient, organization, and appointment information (e.g., appointment times and CPT codes) feed directly into the claim generation engine. Built-in pre-checks help catch errors—like a missing place of service—throughout the billing process to ensure claims are submitted accurately the first time.
Once payments are received, the software cross-references payer details with expected reimbursements. It automatically applies payments to the correct claims, even accounting for partial payments or patient responsibilities.
A customizable reporting suite ties it all together, giving you visibility into outstanding balances and denial trends. Whether you are managing a single location or multiple sites, you will always have a clear financial picture to support smarter decisions.
