What is the purpose of an 835 Remittance Posting in Resolute?

Updating patient and collection balances from the payer’s remittance advice. The 835 is an electronic remittance document that tells you, for each payment, what was paid, any contractual adjustments or write-offs, patient responsibility, and any denials. When Resolute processes this 835, it posts those amounts to the correct patient accounts, applying payments, posting adjustments, and flagging denials. This keeps the AR ledger accurate and up to date and ensures patient balances reflect what the payer actually paid or denied. It also supports accurate statement generation later, but the posting itself is specifically about applying the payer’s remittance to the accounts.
