Introduction
ResCare Care Systems residency program provides management automation for two prime areas

Resident Information
Comprehensive Details
A comprehensive set of information may be stored about each resident.

Residency History
ResCare stores details of each resident's arrival and departure (including arrival and billing dates for pre-entry leave), the Accommodations in which the resident has resided and optionally the Location within the Accommodation.

Charges & Subsidies
Resident Charges
ResCare maintains a full history of the charges the home is entitled to apply for residency.

Subsidies and Supplements
ResCare maintains a full history of the rates applicable to the Subsidies and Supplements available to the home:

Outstanding Subsidies Monitor
This allows you to track subsidy amounts that have not been paid or have only been partly paid by the department

Electronic Commerce
Care Systems is aware of that the department plans to provide for electronic submission of claims in the future and has made itself aware of the general nature of this function. A fully functional electronic commerce function will be incorporated into ResCare as soon as a possible after a final specification is released by the department.

Debtors Management
ResCare uses the information stored about a resident, the fees history and if necessary the Subsidy history to calculate the fees that may be charged to the resident.

The result is stored in an open item debtors system (it always keeps the full details of an unsettled transaction) with automatic allocation of credits and debits.

Automatic Billing
ResCare understands the rules for billing a resident in an aged care home and bills residents correctly automatically.
