Cash Receipts Clerk

Sutter VNA & Hospice is one of the largest, not-for-profit home health and hospice agencies in Northern California. What began in 1906 as the selfless act of volunteer nurses caring for children injured in the 1906 earthquake has evolved into today's Sutter VNA & Hospice. Sutter VNA & Hospice enables patients to recover or live with illness in the comfort and dignity of home, surrounded by the people and things they love. Our home care programs focus on helping patients by administering care and teaching patients to become more independent in managing their illness. Our hospice program cares for the patient and the family, focusing on care, not cure, maximizing the patient's comfort and dignity and also addressing the emotional and spiritual needs that arise when a patient is dying. Sutter VNA & Hospice is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO).

The Cash Receipts Clerk posts all incoming payments and adjustments from Medicare, Medi-Cal, HMOs, PPOs, miscellaneous general insurance companies, and private individuals on-line to specific patient accounts. The Cash Posting Clerk identifies the appropriate account, insurance claim and/or guarantor claim, and applies the correct payment and/or adjustment amount as determined through calculating any contractual allowance or discount.
