The enterprise behvioral healthcare software solution, Essentia, is easy to use and helps mental health providers drive new efficiencies resulting in improved client care and increased revenue.

Fully Integrated

Essentia supports the complete behavioral healthcare organization by integrating Financials, Human Services, Electronic Medical Records and Business Intelligence into one web-based application. In addition, LWSI integrates High Availability to enable 24/7 continuous availability in the event of a disaster or system update.

Application Hosting

The software solution may be deployed remotely online as SaaS (Software As A Service) or may be hosted at your location on an internal IBM System.

General Ledger

Forms the axis of Lavender & Wyatt's Essentia administrative components. Each account provides extensive format control and accommodate each client's unique accounting structure.

Accounts Payable

Provides control and management of accounts payable information from the time an invoice arrives at the office through the preparation of checks and posting to the General Ledger. With a comprehensive inquiry of both open payables and invoices paid during the year, the system helps reduce administrative and clerical costs while managing more timely billing payments. In addition to individual invoice entry and payment, the system provides for recurring payables such as mortgages and other fixed periodic payments.

Fixed Assets

Performs the calculations for monthly depreciation and generates entries for posting to the General Ledger. At the same time, accumulated depreciation for each asset is updated for the current year and life-to-date. Fixed Assets provides inquiry and reports to assist agencies in monitoring and managing their assets.

Human Resources

Interfaces with payroll to assist with personnel information management and provides flexible human resources reporting and personnel evaluation tools. The Human Resources component delivers a dynamic information management database for position management, personnel certifications, history, benefits, and compensation.

Payroll

Simplifies the time-consuming and complex tasks of payroll processing and record-keeping. The Payroll System makes it a simple task to produce payroll checks while maintaining the information required for payroll tax reporting. Payroll provides support for MICR encoding and even provides electronic deposit functions for multiple accounts per employee.

Human Services Components

From the first phone call, information is entered into and populates the system. Essentia begins the authorization process and activates billing and accounts receivables for the client. The result is enhanced coordination between departments as all information is carried through to electronically auto-populate every document along the client's treatment path.

Client Intake

This application gives behavioral healthcare professionals the ability to track client demographic data from the moment of initial communication and provides a record of all subsequent events.

Scheduling

Easily and productively manage the overwhelming task of scheduling your client events. Scheduling provides maintenance of appointments and accommodates individual, group, and recurring scheduling.

Authorizations

These authorizations allow you to control the volume of services provided within the changing behavioral healthcare environment. Essentia warns your staff when an authorization is required, as well as when authorizations have reached a pre-determined trigger point.

Claims Processing

Essentia delivers complete claims processing functions for 837 claims, 835 remittances, and 270/271 eligibility verifications.

Accounts Receivable

This module provides billing for an unlimited number of funding sources and accounts as well as sliding fee scales for self-pay clients. For third party insurance, it will automatically bill both the client and insurance portions simultaneously.

Management Information Reporting

An integrated application which provides organizations with all reporting functions necessary, the Essentia dashboard gives management the ability to periodically analyze, evaluate, and report on virtually any data element, including client demographic and census information.
