for healthcare & revenue cycle

The claim is the contract. Aleq is the ledger that knows it.

Aleq is the books for healthcare providers — it recognizes net patient revenue from 837 claims and 835 remittances, posts contractual adjustments under ASC 606, and keeps the revenue cycle tied to the general ledger.

The reality today

Gross charges aren't revenue, and the write-offs hide the truth.

Claims go out at charge-master rates no payer pays. Remittances come back days or weeks later with contractual adjustments, denials, and partial payments. Net revenue is an allowance estimate until the 835 posts, and bad-debt builds in the gap. Aleq ingests the 837s and 835s, books the right net revenue, and ages A/R against the payer that owes it.

How it works

An 835 posts. Net revenue, trued up.

Claims go out at charge-master rates no payer pays; remittances come back days later with adjustments and denials. Aleq books revenue net of the expected adjustment, then trues up to cash as the 835 settles.

What Aleq runsautonomous
835 / 837 recognized as net revenueAleq reads 837 claims and 835 remittance advice, posts revenue net of expected contractual adjustments under ASC 606, and trues up to actual cash as remittances settle.
Contractual adjustments, by payerThe gap between charge-master and contracted rate is booked as a contractual allowance per payer contract — not buried in a single write-off line.
The revenue cycle on the ledgerCharge, claim, remittance, adjustment, and patient balance each post in sequence, so A/R reflects exactly where every dollar sits in the cycle.
Payer mix & denials trackedRevenue and A/R are split by payer and denial reason, so net collection rate and denial trends are derived straight from the posted ledger.
Bad-debt & allowances postedImplicit price concessions and bad-debt allowances are estimated from collection history and posted automatically, then reconciled as accounts resolve.
