Complete filing, optimization & audit support for hospitals, hospices, SNFs, and clinics. Maximize your reimbursement while staying 100% ECR compliant.
Medicare cost reports (Form CMS-2552-10, CMS-2540-10, etc.) are not just compliance documents — they directly impact your bottom line. Every year, providers leave thousands on the table due to overlooked costs or filing errors.
At Ari Accounting, we dig deep into your trial balance, reclassify expenses, and optimize bad debt pooling to ensure you receive every dollar you’re entitled to. Our team knows Texas MACs and CMS guidelines inside out.
Our specialists reviewing ECR worksheets
We collect trial balance, prior cost report, Medicare settlement data, and bad debt logs. We identify missing reimbursement opportunities.
Expenses are reclassified into cost centers (routine, ancillary, capital). We optimize bad debt, GME/IME, and wage index adjustments.
We prepare and submit the electronic cost report, then stand with you during MAC desk reviews or audits.
We use industry‑leading ECR software for accurate, auditable filings.
