LedgerMatch
Bank Reconciliation for Dental Practices in Columbus, OH
A practical CSV-based bank-to-ledger workflow for dental practices bookkeepers serving businesses in Columbus.
Bookkeeping context in Columbus
Columbus is Ohio's largest city and home to both Chase's Midwest operations and Huntington National Bank's headquarters — making it one of the few cities where two major bank CSV formats are equally common. Columbus bookkeepers serving retail, healthcare, and university-adjacent businesses encounter both formats regularly. LedgerMatch handles Chase and Huntington exports automatically, with distinct column mapping for each, so Columbus accounting firms can process multiple clients without reconfiguring their workflow.
Dental Practices reconciliation workflow
Dental practices receive payments from a complex mix of sources — insurance ERA deposits from Delta Dental, Cigna, Aetna, and Metlife, patient copays and out-of-pocket payments via POS terminal, and patient financing payouts from CareCredit or Lending Club. Each source deposits on a different schedule and in a net amount that doesn't match the ledger entry amount. LedgerMatch matches every insurance payout and patient payment against your QuickBooks or Dentrix ledger in under 10 minutes.
Local and industry considerations
- Ohio has a 3.99% top income tax rate plus a commercial activity tax (CAT) based on gross receipts — Columbus businesses need accurate monthly reconciliation to support accurate CAT filings.
- Insurance reimbursements and patient co-pays arrive via EFT, check, and credit card at different intervals and often net of adjustment amounts — careful monthly matching against QuickBooks is essential.
