Location-Based Billing

Location-Based Premium Billing and Expense Allocation Administered Across Sites, Cost Centers, and Divisions

Organizations with employees across multiple sites, divisions, or cost centers face a billing challenge standard systems don't solve: allocating premium costs accurately while keeping carrier reporting consolidated. BAS administers location-based billing with premium rates by location, expense allocation across cost centers, and monthly remittance reconciliation without spreadsheet overhead.

Location-Based Premium Billing Breaks Down When Rates, Allocations, and Reporting Are Managed Separately

Multi-location premium billing without a structured allocation framework creates misallocated employer contributions, carrier reporting errors, and reconciliation failures. BAS structures it into a governed billing workflow.

Without BAS Manual Location Billing Fragmented rates and misallocated expenses
  • HR and finance manually track premium rates across multiple sites
  • Employer contributions are allocated inconsistently across cost centers
  • Location-specific carrier premiums require manual spreadsheet reconciliation
  • New locations or plan changes require manual updates across multiple systems
  • Finance and accounting receive billing data without location context
With BAS Governed Location Billing Structured premiums and allocations through BAS
  • Premium rates configured per location, region, or site in MyEnroll360
  • Expense allocations structured across cost centers and divisions
  • Location billing reports and carrier premium reconciliation delivered on schedule
  • New locations and plan changes configured through BAS account management
  • Finance and accounting receive billing data by location, cost center, and expense type

Administrative Scope

What BAS Handles for Location-Based Billing

BAS administers location-based premium billing from setup and location mapping through expense allocation configuration, billing reports, cost center reconciliation, and carrier premium remittance.

Responsibility Area What BAS Handles
  • Location and Employer Setup

    Employer locations, sites, and regions configured in the billing system with appropriate group structures, benefit plan assignments, and premium amounts.

  • Benefit Class and Plan Setup by Location

    Benefit classes configured per location with plan assignments, premium amounts, contribution rates, and employer split percentages reflecting location-specific plan structures.

  • Expense Type Code Configuration

    Expense type codes assigned to benefit plans and premium amounts to support employer cost center and division allocation workflows in accounting systems.

  • Invoice Split Configuration

    Billing invoice splits configured by location, cost center, or division so finance teams receive billing data with the allocation structure built in.

  • SFTP Setup for Enrollment Data

    SFTP connection established for secure employer enrollment data file exchange supporting location-based enrollment and premium billing updates.

  • Carrier Setup by Location Group

    Carriers set up per location group with appropriate premium amounts, billing schedules, and remittance workflows to match employer carrier structure.

  • Location Billing Reports

    Premium billing reports generated by location, site, or region, delivering employee-level billing detail with location and cost center context for finance teams.

  • Expense Allocation Reports

    Expense allocation reports generated showing employer contributions by cost center, division, and expense type code, structured for direct use in accounting and payroll systems.

  • Monthly Premium Remittance Reconciliation

    Monthly carrier premium remittance reconciliation across location groups, connecting collected premiums, employer contributions, and outstanding balances in one report.

  • Enrollment Change Processing by Location

    Enrollment changes processed by location with premium updates, carrier reporting changes, and allocation adjustments applied when employees change sites or plans.

  • New Location and Plan Change Onboarding

    New locations, benefit classes, or plan changes configured through account management — premium amounts, expense codes, and carrier setups updated to match employer structure.

  • Client Training and Account Management

    Administrator training and dedicated account management for ongoing location billing configuration, expense allocation updates, and operational reporting support.

How It Works

From Location Setup to Ongoing Allocation Reports and Remittance Reconciliation

Each phase of the location-based billing lifecycle moves through a defined workflow — from initial location mapping through expense allocation configuration, billing reports, and monthly remittance.

  1. Scope

    Contracting and Discovery

    Scope of location-based billing confirmed. Employer locations, benefit plans, premium structures, expense types, and reporting requirements identified before implementation begins.

  2. Map

    Location and Cost Center Mapping

    Locations, cost centers, expense type codes, and division structures mapped to benefit classes and plan assignments — establishing the allocation framework before configuration.

  3. Build

    Premium Rates, Allocations, and Carriers Configured

    Benefit plans, premium amounts, expense codes, invoice splits, and carrier setups configured per location group in MyEnroll360 — matching employer plan structure and finance reporting requirements.

  4. Validate

    Billing Reports and Allocation Setup Reviewed

    Location billing reports, expense allocation outputs, and remittance workflows reviewed by employer before go-live. Administrator training completed and file exchange tested.

  5. Operate

    Billing, Allocation Reports, and Remittance Continue

    Location billing reports, expense allocation outputs, and monthly carrier remittance reconciliation delivered on schedule. New locations and plan changes managed through account management.

Billing Controls

Allocation, Collection, and Receivables Controls Built Into Location-Based Billing

Location-based premium billing requires disciplined controls around site-specific premium amounts, expense type allocations, cost center splits, carrier reporting, and monthly remittance reconciliation. BAS structures these workflows into a governed location billing process.

  • Premium rates configured by location, site, or region
  • Expense allocation by cost center, division, and expense type code
  • Invoice splits and carrier reporting by location group
  • Monthly remittance reconciliation across all location groups

Location-based billing workflows are administered operationally. BAS does not determine employer location structures, plan design, or cost center allocation policy — those decisions remain with the employer.

Where Location Billing Breaks Down

Location Premium Misalignment

Premium rates maintained separately for each location create misalignment between enrollment data, carrier invoices, and billing reports.

Expense Allocation Errors

Employer contributions allocated manually across cost centers create accounting errors when location data is not connected to billing system outputs.

Cost Center Reporting Gaps

Finance and accounting teams receive billing data without location context, requiring manual re-mapping before cost center reports can be produced.

Missing Carrier Premium Data

Carrier invoices by location group require reconciliation against billing system data — gaps appear when carrier setup does not match the employer location structure.

Manual Remittance Reconciliation

Monthly carrier premium remittance across multiple locations requires manual spreadsheet reconciliation without structured location-based remittance reporting.

Client Outcomes

Location-Based Premium Billing Moved out of Manual Tracking and into Structured Allocation and Remittance Workflows

Operational Proof

Where Location-Based Billing Breaks — and How BAS Resolves It

Premium Rate Fragmentation

Premium Rates Differ by Location — Manual Tracking Creates Billing Errors Across Sites

No centralized system for location-specific premium rates requires manual spreadsheet updates for every plan and site combination.

Premium Rates Configured per Location by BAS — No Manual Spreadsheet Maintenance

  • Location-specific benefit classes and premium amounts configured in the billing system
  • Plan changes updated through account management — rates propagate to billing and reporting

Cost Center Allocation Gaps

Finance Receives Billing Data Without Location Context — Cost Center Reports Require Manual Re-Mapping

Accounting teams rebuild cost center allocation reports manually because billing data does not include expense type or division codes.

Expense Type Codes and Cost Center Allocations Built Into Billing Reports at Source

  • Expense type codes assigned to plans — allocation reports delivered with cost center structure built in
  • Invoice splits configured so finance receives location-contextualized billing data directly

Remittance Reconciliation

Monthly Carrier Remittance Across Multiple Locations Requires Manual Spreadsheet Reconciliation

Carrier invoices by location group cannot be reconciled against billing system data without structured remittance reporting.

Monthly Carrier Premium Remittance Reconciliation Delivered Across All Location Groups

  • Carriers configured per location group — remittance reporting connects collected premiums and employer contributions
  • Monthly reconciliation delivered on schedule — no manual matching across carrier invoices and billing system data
