Implant and consignment reconciliation

High-value implants, stents, orthopaedic plates and joints, intra-ocular lenses, often sit on vendor consignment and are reconciled on trust. So one gets used in a case and never billed to the patient, while another is over-charged by the vendor against what was actually consumed. It is a leak most hospitals have never costed, and on lakh-rupee implants it adds up fast. Hospital and lab buying splits across medicines, consumables, reagents, kits and high-value items, and rates drift, the same vendor quotes three prices, a bill gets paid twice, and near-dated stock is written off because nobody caught it in time. The expiry write-off in particular is recurring, real money that simply evaporates.

Who has it

Proportionally largest for nursing homes and day-care or surgical centres, which are procedure-heavy with a lean back office; multi-specialty and secondary hospitals running implant and consignment stock; diagnostic and pathology lab chains for reagent and kit reconciliation; and every segment for the three-way purchase match and expiry control.

What we build

An implant and consignment reconciliation that ties every item end to end: consignment received, used in which case, billed to which patient, charged by which vendor, with every mismatch (used-but-unbilled, over-charged-by-vendor, returned-but-still-charged) flagged for action. The same control extends to other consignment and high-value stock. A clean vendor and rate-contract master and a deterministic three-way match (purchase order against goods received against invoice) that flags price drift, short-supply and duplicate payment, plus an expiry gate and a first-expiry-first-out rule so near-dated medicines, reagents and kits are caught and used or returned before they are written off.

What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off

Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.

The reliable spine

The non-AI spine is the source-linked workflow: clean records, rules, calculations, integrations, exception queues, approvals and reporting for Implant and consignment reconciliation.

Where AI helps

AI is limited to bounded reading, extraction, matching, clustering or drafting from the firm's own data for Implant and consignment reconciliation; it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.

Who signs off

A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.

What changes day to day

Every implant is accounted for against its case, patient and vendor; used-but-unbilled items reach the patient bill and over-charges reach the vendor dispute; the consignment leak that was never costed becomes a tracked number. Off-rate buying, short-supply and duplicate payments are caught before payment; near-dated stock is used or returned instead of written off; clean invoices flow through for one-click approval while only exceptions reach a person.

Illustrative outcome

Unbilled and over-charged implant value surfaced and recovered annually, auditable to the hospital's own records, and procurement leakage and expiry write-offs caught and reduced each cycle. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
