The challenge

Medicaid billing is an important source of funding for school districts, but managing claims can be complex.

At Batesville, the existing outsourced process wasn't delivering the returns the district believed it could achieve.

The team also lacked direct visibility into what was being billed, making it harder to identify potential gaps or check the accuracy of submissions.

To provide an additional safeguard, staff had to manually verify billing information using spreadsheets. This added another layer of administration for an already small team.

The district needed a way to take greater ownership of its billing without creating more work for staff.

The solution

Batesville introduced Euna Special Education's Medicaid billing solution to bring the process in-house and give staff greater control over claims.

With the software in place, the team could manage billing directly, review information before submission and identify errors that needed correcting.

This helped remove some of the uncertainty from the process. Rather than relying on an external provider and manually checking spreadsheets, staff had a clearer view of what was being submitted.

By giving staff the tools to identify and resolve errors earlier, the district established a more transparent and manageable billing process.

"My favorite part of using Euna Special Education is the verification element. I like the process of being notified of errors and being able to make corrections prior to submission. It ensures we're accurate and efficient in what we're sending on to Medicaid."

Giving educators greater control over resources

For Batesville, improving Medicaid billing isn't just about financial efficiency. It's about making sure the district can recover the funding available to support its students.

By bringing the process in-house, the team has gained greater confidence in the accuracy of its claims and clearer oversight of the services being billed.

And with a more manageable process in place, a small team can take ownership of an important administrative responsibility without losing sight of its wider purpose: supporting students.

It's an example of how the right technology can help school districts make better use of their resources and strengthen the systems that support different learning needs.
