Senior Living Finance Is Different. Most Accountants Don’t Know That.

Your revenue is tied to census and payor mix, not invoices. Your labor runs at 50–68% of revenue. Your debt covenants are under lender scrutiny. Generic accounting can’t handle that complexity. We built our practice around it.

📉
Occupancy shifts wipe margin before you notice

A 3% census drop at a 60-unit AL at $5,500/month is $9,900/month in lost revenue. Without real-time financial modeling, you find out at month-end, after decisions have already been made.

👷
Labor costs drift past benchmarks silently

At 61% average industry turnover, each CNA replacement costs ~$4,800 before overtime. Facilities running above their labor benchmark by 6% are burning $180K+ annually, often without a single line item to show for it.

🏦
Lenders are tightening, your financials need to hold up

With ~$10B in senior living debt maturing in 2025, refinancing conditions are stricter. Lenders scrutinize occupancy trends, payor mix, labor ratios, and EBITDA coverage. Your books need to tell a clean, defensible story.

💳
Revenue leaks silently through billing gaps

Care level billing delays, unchallenged payor underpayments, 60-day AR on private pay, denial writeoffs, operators in this category lose 4–8% of potential annual revenue without a CFO-level lens on the numbers.
