The WellSky Alternative for Small Medicaid Providers
WellSky serves thousands of organizations with a very wide range of products. Zeumatic does one thing for small care businesses: it gets Medicaid plans to pay, accurately and on time.
A giant suite, or a tool built for your size
WellSky is one of the largest names in health and community care software, with products for personal care agencies, adult day centers, aging and disability agencies, hospitals and payers. For a large organization that wants one vendor for everything, that breadth is the point.
A small agency, meal program or day center usually needs something narrower and deeper: every authorization read correctly, every claim built from it, every acknowledgment and payment matched back to the claim without a person reconciling spreadsheets. That is the whole of Zeumatic, and it is included rather than added on.
Zeumatic reads authorization PDFs and paper remittances with AI on Google Cloud, under the same Business Associate Agreement that covers your data. It matches 999, 277CA and 835 files to their claims automatically, flags what blocks billing every morning, and shows its prices on its website, with a free trial to start today.

Questions we hear
Is Zeumatic a full replacement for WellSky?
For Medicaid billing, authorizations and payment reconciliation, yes. If you rely on WellSky for caregiver scheduling, clinical documentation or a family portal, compare those needs first: Zeumatic focuses on billing and operations.
Is claims billing an extra in Zeumatic?
No. Claims sent through Availity are part of every plan. Automatic matching of 835 and 277 responses comes with the Helios plan and above, as the price grid on our home page shows.
Is Zeumatic secure enough for Medicaid data?
Zeumatic is built with HIPAA in mind: hosted on Google Cloud under a Business Associate Agreement, with each company's data kept apart, roles per teammate and two-step verification. Every customer signs Zeumatic's own BAA in the app.
Can we move from WellSky without losing our client list?
Export your client list to Excel or CSV and import it into Zeumatic, then upload authorizations as they come; the AI reads them for you.
