Daily
Money Management Services
One of the first indicators that life's everyday routines have become
stressful is a mounting stack of unopened mail and unpaid bills.
Home visits by Care Managers will help to identify this issue and
we can then help by implementing a Daily Money Management program.
Some people
opt for our bill paying service, often used in conjunction with
home visits by a Care Manager. This removes the burden of writing
checks and balancing accounts and allows our accounting staff to
computerize the account(s). Others prefer a monthly visit from one
of our bonded and insured Financial Specialists to assist with bank
reconciliations, medical claims and other financial needs.
Quarterly financial reports can be provided to the
designated party when our in-house bill payment service is chosen.

Medical
Claims Processing
The processing of medical claims can be as minimal as reviewing
explanations of insurance benefits monthly, or as involved as tracking
all claims for extensive medical treatment for past years.
CareSource
has served local health centers, banks and investment trust departments
for their clients' medical claim processing needs. Our financial
department will track all the medical bills, and you never have
to pay the claimant until all insurance benefits have been received.
Oftentimes, CareSource
can act as intermediary and even negotiate with the provider of
services for a reduction in the balance due when there is a proven
financial hardship.
Benefits
& Entitlements Counseling
Understanding what entitlements or benefits are available is quite
a feat. Whether you need to plan for Medicaid, are unsure of your
current Medicare benefits, require assistance with additional insurance,
or benefit applications, CareSource
can help.
When accessing potential pension benefits, we have carefully scripted
requests for additional benefits prepared by a Human Resource Specialist.
These letters have the proper terminology and phrases to trigger
an answer (and potentially a result) from the pension Plan Administrator.
When applying for supplemental Security
Income (SSI,) Social Security Disability Income (SSDI,) Optional
State Supplementation (OSS) and Veteran's Administration (VA) benefits,
we are familiar with local offices and are well versed in the criteria
needed to allow for a smooth and trouble-free application process.
And when the time comes, we can assist and guide you through the
Medicaid application process, as well as advise the client in advance
of some simple planning techniques to maximize the allowable resources.
For more complex Medicaid planning, we will be happy to refer you
to a local Elder Law Attorney.
