Pandle + Care Homes: Faster Bank Import
Care homes receive local authority funding, private fees, and NHS contributions — each with different payment schedules and reconciliation requirements. If you use Pandle for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Care Homes Using Pandle
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV / QIF formatted for direct import into Pandle. Convert your care home bank statements to Excel to reconcile council payments, private resident fees, and NHS funding allocations efficiently.
The Care Homes + Pandle Workflow
Care home managers reconcile multiple funding streams: local authority spot purchase and block contract payments, private resident fees (often paid by family members), NHS Funded Nursing Care (FNC) contributions, and Continuing Healthcare (CHC) funding. Bank statements must be matched against individual resident funding agreements to track who has paid and identify arrears.
Key terms you'll encounter: funded nursing care, continuing healthcare, spot purchase, block contract.
