“Hi, Deac,” you greet as you open the door.

“How was work?” he asks.

“It was fine. My boss forgot to start a software update last night so we didn’t have computer access until after lunch.”

“So, you got paid to sit there and do nothing?”

“Which isn’t that much different than most days,” you tease. “What about you? Any crazy calls?”

You lead Deacon into your kitchen, and his smile widens when he sees dinner waiting on your counter. He pulls you into a quick hug before telling you about his day at work.

“No injuries?” you ask softly.

“No injuries,” he assures. “What about you; any paper cuts that need tending to?”

“Just mental injuries for me. Our financial statements aren’t aligning like they should and if it’s not fixed by the next audit, someone’s getting in trouble.”

“What do you think caused it?”

“Oversight or adding the same bill twice, I’d guess. But I think we should talk about something more exciting than my future IRS investigation.”

“Then let’s talk about that amazing dinner over there and I’ll remind you that Luca wants to have a cooking competition with you.”

Deacon has been your best friend since he moved in next door. You also harbor an ever-growing crush on him. When you saw him climb out of the moving truck the first day, you knew you wanted to be close. He’s got a stressful job, so if you can give him a break and a friend, that’s what you’ll do.

Deacon watches the screen in the situation room as Hondo explains the corporate espionage turned weapon trafficking case. It's a strange move, going from stealing trade secrets to transporting illegal weapons across borders and into areas with strict gun control laws. Metro found a lot of evidence, but when they located the weapons supply in their prime suspect’s corporate office, they called in 20 Squad.

“Wait, go back. Who’s the suspect?” Deacon asks.

His eyes search the monitor as Hondo returns to a page of surveillance photos.

“Elwin Dupree. You know him?” Hondo responds.

“Not personally, but I know someone who works for him.”

“CI?” Chris guesses.

“No. She might be willing to help, though.”

“Call her,” Hondo says.

Hicks adds, “Otherwise, we’re going in blind. Metro has intel but it’s not enough to avoid an ambush.”

Deacon nods and walks out of the room. He presses a contact from his favorites list before raising his phone to his ear.

“Remind me why we work here?” your desk neighbor, whom you lovingly call Nola, says as she sits across from you.

“Because the pay is good… and we’re desperate,” you offer, smiling as you accept your favorite drink.

“May I remind you that Dupree is an idiot who can’t even remember what he asks us to do?”

“Just smile and go with it, Nola, it’s the easiest way to handle it.”

“The man called me into his office yesterday, and then didn’t know why I was there,” she whispers.

“That’s probably a good thing for you. Considering your nickname is based off of your reply of no; lazy.”

“I am lazy! So, I don’t like to do things. He can fire me whenever he wants.”

You roll your eyes and prepare to reply but are interrupted by your cell phone ringing. You apologize to Nola before you answer it.

“Hey, it’s me,” Deacon says on the other end of the line.

“Indeed, it is. What’s going on?” you reply.

“How do you know something is going on?”

“It’s mid-morning on a weekday. And you never call me.”

“I call you all the time!” Deacon argues.

You laugh before you say, “Not when you’re at work.”

“Okay, fine, you’re right. Listen, we’re working on something, and your boss’s name came up.”

“Dupree?” you inquire. “Why?”

“I can’t tell you exactly what we’re looking into, but Hondo and Hicks wanted to know if you’d be willing to help us.”

“Of course. Tell me what to do,” you agree.

“Can you come down here?”

“Uh, yeah,” you answer. You open the calendar on your computer and add, “I can spare an hour and a half, is that enough time?”

“Absolutely. Thank you,” Deacon says.

“Anything for you.”

You hang up and gather your things before standing.

“Where are you off to? Please tell me you’re leaving to go on a date with the hot neighbor you always talk about,” Nola whispers.

“Not today. There was a slight mishap for some of our paperwork. I have to run to another office and get everything sorted out,” you lie. “I’ll have my cell if you need anything.”

“Dodging bullets left and right, aren’t you? Go ahead, I’ll watch your phone and fill in Dupree if he notices you’re gone.”

“Thanks, Nola.”

When you park outside the station, your thoughts begin spiraling. You sit in your seat and wonder if you made the right decision. Will you be in Deacon’s way or be too distracted by him to even help? What if something happens to him while you’re with him? What if he-

A tap on your window draws you from your questions. You turn your head and see Deacon looking at you through the glass. You send him a small smile as he opens your door and bends to look at you. His head tilts to this side, and when he lowers to a squat, his brown eyes distract you as he looks up at you.

“You okay? You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to,” he says gently.

“No, I want to. Just- I was thinking too much, I guess,” you reply.

Deacon nods and stands before offering his hand to help you out of your seat. He closes the door and ensures it’s locked before moving his hand to your back to lead you inside.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Hondo,” Hondo says as you enter.

You shake Hondo’s hand and introduce yourself as you follow him further into the station. He doesn’t waste any time as he begins explaining as much as he can about how your boss is involved in the case they’re working.

“We’d like to send you in the get additional details on the office and any other information you can find,” Hondo says. “We’ve got basic floor plans, but we need insider info.”

“She can’t go in alone,” Deacon argues. “We don’t know what he has in that office. If she starts asking questions and he gets suspicious-“

You cut Deacon off by laying a hand on his shoulder and asking, “What if you go in with me? It wouldn’t be that hard for me to lie about who you are; Dupree doesn’t know most of the people who work in the building. Plus, you know what to look for better than I do.”

Hondo looks at Deacon and waits for his reply. You feel Deacon sigh against your hand before agreeing to go into the office with you.

“There’s an employee entrance without metal detectors, but you have to swipe a keycard,” you explain. “They’ll know if you piggyback with me.”

“Our techs can make him a keycard,” Hondo assures. “If you have yours, they can copy parts of it.”

You nod and pass your card to Hondo. He turns and gives it to a passing officer with a few short instructions. Deacon pats your arm as he leaves to change; his uniform isn’t business casual, but he said he'd find something more fitting.

“20 Squad is going to be close by,” Hondo begins. “Deacon can say a word and we’ll be inside, but if you need help and get separated from Deacon, try to get to a window. Signaling for help is easiest with this; just keep it in your pocket or your hand and press the button if you need us.”

You accept the small device and slide it into your pocket. It’s invisible, and you nod as Hondo reassures you everything will be okay.

“I know you can’t tell me what exactly Dupree is doing, but you’re going to catch him, right?” you ask softly.

“Absolutely. Nobody can run from S.W.A.T.”

You scan your keycard and wait for Deacon to do the same before opening the door. The employee entrance is on the side of the building, and you smooth your hands over your hips nervously. When you feel the device Hondo gave you, you relax slightly.

“We’ll walk to my desk, look at a few papers, and then go in?” you suggest as Deacon gestures for you to enter.

“Sounds good,” he agrees.

“The suit looks��good,” you mumble as you walk toward the elevator.

Deacon chuckles as the elevator door opens, and you smile as he shakes his head at your flattery. The elevator is quiet, and as you wait to arrive on your floor, you take a few deep breaths. Deacon’s hand finds your lower back, and he rubs small, comforting circles before the door opens.

“Still working on the paperwork issue?” Nola asks when you reach your desk.

“Yeah, we are. This is Ryan from the Santa Monica branch,” you say.

Nola’s eyes narrow at you before she looks at Deacon’s hand. He’s close to you, like always, but you don’t understand her look. You raise your brows, but she only shrugs before looking back at her computer.

“Was it this one?” you ask Deacon.

He takes the blank form from your hand and nods. “Yes, this is the one.”

You return the paper to its rightful place on your desk before leading Deacon down another hallway. Nola’s reaction confused you at first, yet you’re not surprised when Deacon gently grabs your hip to stop you in the hallway.

“I’m sorry,” you whisper.

“It’s fine. Just stay calm and remember our covers. Like you said, Dupree won’t know any difference,” Deacon soothes. “And the team’s waiting for our signal if we need them.”

You nod, and Deacon’s hands raise to your shoulders as he drops his chin to look into your eyes.

“You got this,” he promises.

“I need to discuss an urgent matter with Mr. Dupree,” you inform his secretary. “This is Mr. Ryan Davidson from the Santa Monica branch. There have been some discrepancies with paperwork submitted to their office, which needs Mr. Dupree’s immediate attention.”

His secretary raises the receiver of her desk phone and whispers into it. You turn to look at Deacon, and he tilts his head to the left to signal you to stay calm and wait.

“You can go on in,” the secretary says as she lowers the phone.

Deacon opens the door for you, and you step inside first.

“Hello,” Mr. Dupree greets. He doesn’t pretend to remember your name, you notice. “I heard there’s an issue with some paperwork?”

“Yes, sir,” Deacon says. “I’m Ryan Davidson with the Santa Monica office and we’ve been having issues; receiving incomplete or incorrect paperwork from this branch.”

“My sincerest apologies, Ryan. If you don’t mind, use that laptop there and sign into your account while I bring mine up. We’ll get this sorted.”

You stand back as Deacon walks to the table at the back of the office and opens the laptop. Mr. Dupree didn’t shake his hand, ask for identification, or take other proper steps before jumping to help. It’s suspicious, but probably not what Deacon and his team need.

“What kind of incorrect information have you seen?” Mr. Dupree asks. You open your mouth to answer, and he adds, “Ryan?”

“Financial statements that aren’t matching previous months, for one. Most likely an oversight or adding the same bill twice. Nothing too extreme, just something we need sorted before the end-of-year audits,” Deacon answers.

You raise your eyebrows in surprise at his response. He practically repeated a complaint you shared during your last dinner together.

“Very well. I don’t know why the system is moving so slowly,” Dupree responds. He moves his hand under his desk as Deacon types.

You watch Dupree because Deacon’s team is getting him the access he needs. When you see the handle of a gun gripped in Dupree’s hand, you call, “Gun!” and drop to the floor just before he shoots above your head.

Deacon pulls his own weapon and points it at Dupree as he demands, “Put the gun down. I’m Sergeant Kay, L.A.P.D. S.W.A.T.”

As Deacon speaks, you slowly press your back against the side of Dupree’s desk, where he can’t see you. Deacon’s eyes are on Dupree, but you watch Deacon because you trust him to keep you safe.

“I could put it down,” Dupree says. “But if I angle it like this and pull the trigger, wouldn’t it hit your little friend?”

Deacon glances at you quickly, and you lock eyes before you shift away from the oversized desk.

“One more time: drop the gun,” Deacon repeats.

You can’t see Dupree, but you clap your hands over your ears as you hear two shots. Everything goes quiet, and you lean forward slowly to look for Deacon. He kneels before you and gently pulls your hands away from your head. You let him move you before surging forward to hug him. He welcomes you into his arms as footsteps echo in the hallway outside.

“It’s okay. We got him,” Deacon promises.

You nod against Deacon and allow him to help you stand. Deacon keeps you angled away from Dupree’s desk, and you’re happy to avoid looking.

“Did you get everything you need?” you ask quietly as Street and Luca lead a paramedic inside.

“We did. Are you okay?”

Deacon lays a hand on your shoulder, and his thumb presses gently into your tense muscles as he looks into your eyes.

“Get her out of here. Hondo said you can take the rest of the day. Maybe she can practice for the competition,” Luca calls.

“I think you need the practice more than me,” you reply without turning.

Luca laughs as Deacon wraps an arm around your shoulders and leads you out of the office. He takes you back to your desk to get your things, and Nola rushes to hug you when you enter the open area.

“I heard the shots and was so worried!” she exclaims. “You’re okay?”

“I’m fine,” you promise.

 “Then I need you to do something. Go home and ask your neighbor out. Don’t wait too long,” she says.

You nod and return to Deacon’s side. He heard everything from where he was standing, yet doesn’t comment as he helps you into the passenger seat of his car. Once you’re on the road, he fills the silence by asking you questions about what you will cook for your competition with Luca. You know he’s trying to distract you from what happened, and you appreciate it.

Back at the station, you sign some paperwork to receive CI benefits before walking to Deacon’s side. He offers to drive you home and keep you company, which you happily accept. You never like leaving Deacon and don’t want to be alone tonight.

“I waited too long,” Deacon murmurs while walking you out.

You stop and turn to face him as you ask, “For what?”

“What your friend said. I waited too long to ask you out.”

You smile and slide your hand into his. “Did you know that Nola looked at us like that because you were standing really close to me?" Deacon shrugs, and you explain, “I never shut up about you, Deac. I’m in love with you, so she was confused about why I was standing so close to another man.”

“Never?” Deacon repeats playfully.

“You didn’t wait too long, Deac,” you promise.

“I didn’t?”

“Not if you take your chance right now.”

Deacon looks around quickly before yelling, “Hicks! Did you file it yet?”

“No; I’m busy, Deacon,” Hicks answers.

“Can you make her Hondo’s CI?”

Hicks looks between the two of you and rolls his eyes. “Yes, I can.”

When Deacon turns back to you, he doesn’t give you time to speak before he asks, “Will you go out with me?”

“Nothing would make me happier,” you answer.

Your smile grows to match Deacon’s, but he makes it disappear when he pulls you in and kisses you. The sound of clapping makes you open your eyes as you pull back. Hondo leads 20 Squad in a round of applause, and you bury your face in Deacon’s chest to hide your grin and burning embarrassment.

“My CI’s never end up like this,” Hondo jokes.

“Pretty good timing, though, wasn’t it?” Deacon asks as he wraps his arms around you.

You stand wordlessly from the couch and walk past Deacon. He turns to watch you as you enter your bathroom and close the door. It only takes a moment for him to decide to follow you.

“Are you okay?” Deacon asks from outside the door. “And don’t just say you’re fine. We both know you’re not.”

You open the door and lean against the vanity as he walks in. “I feel bad that you had to shoot Dupree. I know he’s fine and he’ll recover, pay for him crimes, and everything. But you probably wouldn’t have done that if I wasn’t there.”

“Don’t think like that. If he had refused to drop the gun or fired again, I would have stopped him. Whether you were there or not. The only thing that was different was how fast I decided to do it; he was threatening you, but that didn’t affect my reaction itself.”

You nod, and Deacon places his hands on the vanity, caging you and keeping you close. “Don’t carry that guilt around,” he requests. “It gets heavy quickly.”

You slip your arms under Deacon’s to circle his waist. Because of your position, you look up at him and ask, “Could I have another kiss to help me overcome all of this guilt?”

Deacon laughs as his hand raises to rub your back. “Anything for my accidental CI.”

“I’m Hondo’s CI,” you remind him.

“But I’m the one that gets to kiss you, so who has the better timing?”

You let your kiss answer the question, and when Deacon pulls you against him to be even closer, you know that the wait was worth it. Though you probably won’t agree to go into the office of a weapon trafficker with him again, you will always be ready to help him when he asks and comfort him when he can’t. Despite how much you loved Deacon when you thought you could only be friends, you feel more love now that you know he feels the same.

Just so that people are also aware - these aren’t new issues. They have been known about for a significant number of years (5+) at this point. Longer if you count machine learning and software development in general. Google Deepmind created an artificial intelligence ethics unit board, (privately in existence since the mid 2010s, publicly since 2017) to understand multiple risks surrounding the use of AI technology. You would think this was a good thing. So what did they find? Timmit Gebru and Emily Bender, the leading Google ethics advisor and a computational linguistics professor respectively, helped co-author a paper called “On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots: Can Language Models Be Too Big?“. Some of the key points include:

“In accepting large amounts of web text as ‘representative’ of ‘all’ of humanity we risk perpetuating dominant viewpoints, increasing power imbalances, and further reifying inequality.“

“In all cases, the voices of people most likely to hew to a hegemonic viewpoint are also more likely to be retained. In the case of US and UK English, this means that white supremacist and misogynistic, ageist, etc. views are overrepresented in the training data, not only exceeding their prevalence in the general population but also setting up models trained on these datasets to further amplify biases and harms.”

“BERT, ELMo, GPT and GPT-2 encode more bias against identities marginalized along more than one dimension than would be expected based on just the combination of the bias along each of the axes [ 54, 132]. Many of these works conclude that these issues are a reflection of training data characteristics.”

“...model auditing techniques typically rely on automated systems for measuring sentiment, toxicity, or novel metrics such as ‘regard’ to measure attitudes towards a specific demographic group [119]. But these systems themselves may not be reliable means of measuring the toxicity of text generated by LMs. For example, the Perspective API model has been found to associate higher levels of toxicity with sentences containing identity markers for marginalized groups or even specific names [61,103].“

It also talks about issues surrounding energy usage for large models and how environmentally friendly they are. Definitely take a read.

So what happened to Timmit? She was fired from her job. This was against a backdrop of mass protest within Google itself, with petitions and public calls for her work to be recognised by more than 1200 of her own colleagues.

If you’re interested in knowing more about AI hype - Timmit is still very active in AI ethics and runs the Distributed AI Research Institute (DAIR). They do a Twitch stream with researchers and guest speakers to highlight the tech industry’s bullshit every so often called the Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000 which I’d very much recommend: https://www.twitch.tv/dair_institute

The key takeaway here is that AI companies are aware of these problems - they simply aren’t interested in doing anything about them. Keep that in mind when using these tools.

This is why it is so important to be critical and double check everything you generate using image generators and text-based AI.

Why Automating Your Accounts Payable Process is a Game-Changer for Business Efficiency

Efficiency is everything in modern business. Companies that streamline their operations not only save time and money but also gain a competitive edge. One crucial area often overlooked is the accounts payable (AP) process. Traditionally, AP processes are manual, paper-heavy, and prone to errors. Fortunately, accounts payable automation is changing the game — transforming how businesses manage their finances and drive operational excellence.

The Problem with Manual Accounts Payable Processes

Manual AP systems are often riddled with inefficiencies. From entering invoice data by hand to chasing down approvals and filing paper records, every step in the traditional AP process introduces opportunities for delay and error. These problems compound when dealing with large volumes of invoices or vendors across different locations.

Common issues with manual AP workflows include:

Data entry errors

Lost or misplaced invoices

Delayed payments

Poor visibility into outstanding liabilities

Limited fraud detection capabilities

All these issues not only disrupt operations but can also harm vendor relationships and create cash flow challenges.

The Power of Automation

Automating your accounts payable process brings structure, speed, and transparency to what was once a time-consuming and error-prone system. Businesses can move from days or even weeks of processing time to just a few hours or less.

Key benefits of AP automation include:

1. Faster Processing Times

Invoices can be received, scanned, and processed digitally. Automation tools can match purchase orders to invoices and route them for approval without manual intervention, significantly reducing turnaround time.

2. Reduced Operational Costs

By minimizing manual work and errors, companies save on labor costs, printing, mailing, and late fees. Automation can also help avoid duplicate payments and fraud, adding another layer of savings.

3. Improved Accuracy

Optical character recognition (OCR) and intelligent data capture ensure accurate extraction of invoice data. This reduces the chance of human error and ensures financial records are always reliable.

4. Better Compliance and Audit Readiness

Every action taken in an automated AP system is logged and time-stamped. This creates a clear audit trail that helps organizations stay compliant with financial regulations and internal policies.

5. Real-Time Visibility

Dashboards and reporting tools give finance teams complete visibility into the AP pipeline. They can track outstanding invoices, monitor approval bottlenecks, and make informed cash flow decisions.

6. Stronger Vendor Relationships

Timely payments improve vendor trust and may even open the door to early payment discounts. With automation, companies can easily meet payment terms and maintain a positive reputation with suppliers.

How Automation Transforms Workflows

The automation journey typically starts by integrating AP tools with your existing enterprise systems. From there, invoices can be submitted electronically and routed automatically for validation and approval. Smart rules ensure that exceptions are flagged and escalated, while standard transactions flow through with minimal intervention.

Finance teams can access all invoice data in one central platform, eliminating the need for emails, spreadsheets, or printed documents. Approval workflows can be customized to match your organizational structure, and notifications keep everyone in the loop.

Making the Shift to Automation

While making the shift to an automated AP process may require some upfront investment in software and training, the return on investment is clear. Companies often experience cost savings, better control over payables, and improved employee productivity within just a few months.

The key to success is choosing a solution that aligns with your company’s size, complexity, and growth plans. A scalable, user-friendly platform ensures adoption across departments and long-term value.

Final Thoughts

Accounts payable automation isn’t just about reducing paperwork—it’s about empowering finance teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than manual tasks. It brings consistency, control, and clarity to one of the most critical functions in any organization.

For businesses looking to thrive in a competitive environment, automating accounts payable isn’t just an upgrade. It’s a game-changer.

Key Trends in Document Digitization Software to Watch in 2025

As the world embraces remote work, cloud technology, and paperless operations, the demand for document digitization software continues to skyrocket. From small businesses to large enterprises, organizations are shifting away from traditional filing systems and investing in tools that not only digitize paper documents but also automate, organize, and secure them.

With 2025 on the horizon, the landscape of document digitization software is evolving rapidly. Here are the key trends that are shaping the future of document management and digital transformation.

1. AI and Machine Learning Are Revolutionizing Data Capture

One of the most significant developments in document digitization software is the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). These technologies allow systems to go beyond simple scanning and optical character recognition (OCR).

Now, AI-powered tools can:

Auto-classify documents based on content

Detect errors or anomalies in scanned data

Extract structured data from unstructured formats

Improve accuracy over time through learning algorithms

This reduces the need for manual data entry and speeds up document processing, especially in industries like banking, legal, and healthcare.

2. Cloud-Based Digitization Is Becoming the Norm

With the rise of hybrid and remote work models, cloud-based document digitization software is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity. Organizations are moving away from on-premise setups and opting for cloud platforms that offer:

Real-time access from anywhere

Automatic software updates

Scalable storage solutions

Built-in backup and disaster recovery features

Cloud-native systems also allow easier collaboration across departments and geographies, making workflows more agile and integrated.

3. Focus on Data Security and Compliance

As digital document repositories grow, so do the risks associated with unauthorized access, data breaches, and non-compliance. In 2025, security will be a core component of any serious document digitization software.

Key features in demand include:

End-to-end encryption

Role-based access controls

Audit trails and activity logs

Compliance support for regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2

Vendors are increasingly offering compliance-specific solutions tailored to industries such as healthcare, finance, and government.

4. Seamless Integration with Business Applications

Gone are the days when document management existed in isolation. The best document digitization software in 2025 will offer deep integrations with CRM, ERP, HRMS, and other enterprise tools.

For example, a digitized invoice can be automatically routed to an accounts payable system, or a client contract can sync directly with a CRM. This integration creates a unified digital workspace and eliminates bottlenecks caused by siloed systems.

5. Mobile-First Document Digitization

With smartphones and tablets becoming everyday business tools, mobile compatibility is a top priority. Modern document digitization software now includes mobile apps that allow users to:

Scan documents using phone cameras

Upload and access files on the go

Approve workflows and tasks from mobile devices

This flexibility ensures that digitization and document access aren’t confined to desktop environments.

6. Enhanced User Experience and Low-Code Platforms

User-friendly interfaces are no longer optional. Developers are focusing on intuitive UI/UX design and providing low-code or no-code options for setting up automation rules, workflows, and templates.

This democratizes the digitization process, allowing non-technical users to customize the software to their needs without IT intervention.

Conclusion

As businesses continue to embrace digital transformation, document digitization software is evolving into a smarter, more integrated, and secure solution. In 2025, organizations that stay ahead of these trends—AI-powered automation, cloud-based access, tight security, seamless integration, mobile functionality, and user-friendly platforms—will not only streamline their operations but also gain a competitive edge.

If your organization is still relying on traditional document handling, now is the time to explore the cutting-edge features offered by modern document digitization software. The future of efficient, secure, and intelligent document management is already here.

Why a Certification in Medical Coding Is the Fast‑Track Ticket to Remote Healthcare Careers

The healthcare boom isn’t just in hospital wards—it’s online. Certification in Medical Coding sit at the crossroads of medicine, technology, and flexible work. Here’s why earning a certification in medical coding may be the quickest on‑ramp to a location‑independent healthcare career.

1. The Remote‑Ready Nature of Coding Work

Medical coding is fundamentally data interpretation and entry—tasks that require secure software and a stable internet connection, not a physical cubicle. Most electronic health record (EHR) systems and revenue‑cycle platforms are cloud‑based, enabling HIPAA‑compliant access from anywhere.

Stat to note: A 2024 AAPC survey found 62 % of U.S. medical coders now work fully remote or hybrid, up from 34 % in 2019.

3. Certification = Instant Credibility & Higher Pay

Earning industry‑recognized credentials (CPC, CCS, CRC, COC) signals proficiency with ICD‑10‑CM, CPT, HCPCS, and payer guidelines—the core languages of reimbursement. Certified coders command 20–27 % higher median pay than non‑certified peers and often skip entry‑level “apprentice” steps.

4. Accelerated Learning Timeline

Duration: Many reputable programs (including Guardians Ed Tech’s) can be completed in 4–6 months part‑time.

Cost‑Efficiency: Compared with multi‑year allied‑health degrees, a coding certification typically costs 10–15 % as much yet unlocks immediate earning power.

Modular Micro‑learning: Asynchronous video modules and live labs fit around work or family schedules—ideal for career changers.

5. Portability Across Borders & Settings

Because medical coding uses globally harmonized code sets (ICD‑10), certified professionals can serve providers in multiple countries (with minor payer‑specific tweaks). Your credential travels with you whether you live in Mumbai, Manila, or Milwaukee.

6. Pathways Beyond Coding

Certification is a gateway—not a ceiling. Experienced remote coders transition into:

Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI)

Health‑Data Analytics

Revenue‑Cycle Management Leadership

Compliance & Audit Consulting

Each step up the ladder often retains—or even enhances—your remote flexibility.

7. Work‑Life Autonomy & Inclusivity

Remote medical coding offers:

Flexible shifts (evenings/weekends) for parents or caregivers

Reduced commuting stress & expenses

Opportunities for people with mobility challenges who excel in detail‑oriented digital work

8. How to Fast‑Track Your Certification with Guardians Ed Tech

Enroll in the CPC Mastery Program – live expert‑led cohorts start monthly.

Hands‑On Practice – access to an EHR sandbox with 750+ real‑world case studies.

Exam Readiness Bootcamp – timed mock exams, analytics‑driven feedback.

Job‑Guarantee Pipeline – partner network of 120+ U.S. & global employers seeking remote coders.

Bonus: Guardians students receive lifetime access to quarterly code‑set update workshops—keeping you market‑ready as regulations evolve.

A certification in medical coding is more than a piece of paper—it’s a passport to high‑demand, well‑compensated, and genuinely remote roles in the healthcare ecosystem. With focused training and an industry‑validated credential, you can move from learner to location‑independent healthcare professional in under a year.

Reimbursment Software: Handle the Expense with the digital move.

Reimbursement system: Make your expense worries easy, reliable, and transparent

Imagine that you have gone out of town for a client meeting. You took a taxi at your own expense, stayed in a hotel, and got some important printouts done for the presentation. When you returned to the office, there was only one question on your mind – “Will I get all this expense back from the company?”

Now imagine if the company has implemented an easy, transparent, and fast process, where there is no hassle of filling forms, no fear of losing the bill, and no waiting for weeks. This is what a good reimbursement system does.

Reimbursement does not mean just returning the money.

Many people think that reimbursement means getting back what you have spent. But the truth is that it is a kind of trust – between the company and the employee. A trust that “we will take care of what you have done for the organization.”

Good companies do not see this system as just a formality, but consider it a part of employee respect.

A digital reimbursement system is the need of the hour.

In the olden days, employees had to prepare files to reimburse their expenses. Photocopies of bills, applications, boss's signature… and then a visit to the accounts department. Many times people used to wonder if they would get their expenses reimbursed or not.

Today, times have changed.

Now just open the mobile app, take a photo of the bill, enter the details and submit it. Money can be transferred to your bank account in no time.

Benefits that every organization should understand

An environment of trust is created

When employees see that their expenses are being reimbursed without any delay, they work freely with the best reimbursement software.

Easy to track data

Who is spending, when, how much - all this remains on record. No fight, no mistake.

Convenience during audits and taxes

At the end of the year, everything is digitally reconciled – without opening any files.

Reduces HR burden

The HR team also avoids manual checking and can focus on more strategic tasks.

The reimbursement system is not a facility; it is a culture

Every organisation that takes its employees seriously understands that reimbursement is not just an accounts function. It is part of the spirit that creates a healthy and trusting work culture.

When employees trust that the office will take care of all their expenses, whether small or big, they are willing to pay that 10% extra for the office.

Conclusion: One small step, big trust

A reimbursement software is not a big investment, but it definitely impacts the way your team thinks. By adopting the right system, you not only keep track of expenses better but also build a strong relationship with your people.

So, if until now you were trusting only papers, now is the time to trust digitally.

Mastering Cash Flow Management: The Key to Sustainable Business Growth

Cash flow is the lifeblood of any business. Without it, even the most profitable companies can find themselves in financial trouble. Whether you’re just starting out or scaling up, cash flow management is critical to keeping your operations running smoothly — and your business thriving long-term.

But what exactly is cash flow? And how can small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) manage it effectively?

In this in-depth guide, we’ll walk you through the importance of managing cash flow, common challenges business owners face, and practical strategies you can use to stay ahead. And if you’re looking for expert support, Bizee Bookkeeper is here to help you take control of your numbers without the headache.

What is Cash Flow Management?

Cash flow management is the process of tracking how much money is coming into and going out of your business. It ensures that your business has enough liquidity to pay bills, cover payroll, invest in opportunities, and avoid debt.

There are two key components to understand:

Cash Inflows — Money received, typically from customer payments, loans, investments, or asset sales.

Cash Outflows — Money paid out, such as rent, salaries, vendor invoices, and other operating expenses.

By managing cash flow properly, you ensure your business always has the funds it needs to function — without relying on last-minute loans or dipping into reserves.

Why Cash Flow Management is Critical for Growing Businesses

As your business grows, so do your financial responsibilities. More clients, more inventory, more staff — and more complexity. Without proper systems in place, cash flow gaps can sneak up on you, especially if you’re waiting on payments while expenses pile up.

Here’s why managing your cash flow should be a top priority:

1. Avoid Liquidity Crises

Even profitable businesses can go under if they run out of cash. A lack of liquidity means you can’t pay your bills — even if you have incoming revenue on paper.

2. Make Strategic Decisions

Strong cash flow gives you the freedom to invest in growth — like hiring, marketing, or equipment — without risking your operations.

3. Build Business Resilience

When unexpected expenses hit, healthy cash flow can be your safety net. It allows you to weather slow seasons, economic downturns, or emergencies without panic.

4. Improve Vendor and Employee Relationships

Consistent cash flow helps you pay employees and suppliers on time, strengthening trust and keeping operations steady.

Common Cash Flow Challenges (And How to Fix Them)

Running into cash flow issues? You’re not alone. Many businesses face the same pain points, but the good news is — they can be solved with the right systems.

❌ Late Customer Payments  Fix: Implement clear payment terms, use invoicing software with reminders, and consider offering discounts for early payments.

❌ Overestimating Revenue  Fix: Use realistic forecasts based on historical data and industry benchmarks.

❌ Uncontrolled Spending  Fix: Review expenses regularly, negotiate with vendors, and prioritize essential costs.

❌ No Cash Reserve  Fix: Build a cash cushion by setting aside a percentage of income each month. Even small amounts add up.

7 Practical Tips for Better Cash Flow Management

Forecast Regularly — Predict inflows and outflows for the next 3–6 months to spot trouble before it hits.

Invoice Promptly — Don’t delay billing. The sooner you invoice, the sooner you get paid.

Shorten Payment Cycles — Request deposits or partial payments upfront.

Cut Unnecessary Costs — Regularly audit expenses and eliminate waste.

Negotiate Terms — Ask suppliers for extended payment terms to improve cash flexibility.

Use Technology — Accounting and bookkeeping tools can automate reports and reminders.

Outsource Your Bookkeeping — Working with professionals ensures accurate cash tracking and insightful analysis.

Why Outsourcing Your Bookkeeping Helps with Cash Flow

One of the smartest moves growing businesses can make is outsourcing their bookkeeping. Professional bookkeepers do more than just track numbers — they help you understand your financial data so you can make informed decisions and stay cash-flow positive.

At Bizee Bookkeeper, we specialize in helping small businesses manage their books, monitor their cash flow, and stay financially healthy. Whether you’re struggling with late invoices or just don’t have time to reconcile accounts, we’ve got your back.

Final Thoughts

Cash flow can make or break your business — but with the right strategies, tools, and support, you can master it. Stay proactive, keep your books clean, and don’t be afraid to bring in experts to guide you.

Want to simplify your finances and grow with confidence?  👉 Get started with Bizee Bookkeeper today and take control of your cash flow.

Top 5 Bookkeeping Mistakes Small Businesses Make (and How to Avoid Them)

Running a small business means wearing many hats. From sales and marketing to customer service, you have a lot on your plate. One task that often gets overlooked is bookkeeping. But ignoring your books can cause serious problems. In fact, many small businesses run into trouble due to common bookkeeping errors. These errors can affect your cash flow, taxes, and even how you make business decisions.

If you're a small business owner, this guide is for you. We’ll walk through the top bookkeeping mistakes for small business owners and how you can avoid them. Keeping your books clean and up-to-date is not just for tax time. It’s about knowing where your business stands every day.

1. Mixing Personal and Business Finances

One of the most common bookkeeping mistakes for small business owners is mixing personal and business expenses. It might seem easier to use the same bank account or credit card, but this creates confusion.

When you mix finances, it becomes hard to see how your business is actually doing. It also creates problems when filing taxes. You might miss out on business deductions or worse, get flagged for an audit.

How to avoid it:

Open a separate bank account for your business.

Use a business credit card.

Keep all business transactions separate from personal ones.

This simple step helps avoid common bookkeeping errors and keeps your records clean.

2. Not Keeping Receipts or Proper Records

Another big mistake is not keeping receipts or proper records of expenses. Many small business owners don’t save their receipts, thinking digital bank records are enough. But this can backfire.

Receipts help you back up your business expenses during tax season or in case of an audit. Missing receipts mean you could lose out on deductions or fail to prove business spending.

How to avoid it:

Use apps to scan and store receipts.

Keep both digital and paper copies when possible.

Record every expense in your bookkeeping software.

Proper recordkeeping reduces the risk of common bookkeeping errors and keeps your finances in order.

3. Failing to Track Cash Flow Regularly

Cash flow is the money coming in and going out of your business. Not keeping an eye on it is one of the serious bookkeeping mistakes for small business owners.

When you don’t track your cash flow, you might think you have more money than you actually do. This can lead to overspending, missed bills, or even bounced checks.

How to avoid it:

Review your income and expenses weekly.

Use software that shows your cash flow in real-time.

Set up reminders to review cash flow reports.

Watching your cash flow helps you make better decisions and avoid common bookkeeping errors.

4. DIY Bookkeeping Without Proper Knowledge

Trying to do your own bookkeeping without knowing the basics can lead to costly mistakes. Many small business owners try to save money by doing everything themselves. But bookkeeping involves rules and steps that need to be followed.

One wrong entry can throw off your entire balance sheet. Without proper knowledge, you might record income or expenses in the wrong way, which leads to common bookkeeping errors.

How to avoid it:

Take a basic bookkeeping course.

Hire a professional to set up your books.

Work with an accountant for regular check-ins.

Avoiding bookkeeping mistakes for small business means knowing when to ask for help.

5. Delaying Bookkeeping Tasks

Procrastination is another one of the most frequent bookkeeping mistakes for small business owners. Waiting too long to update your books can cause problems.

When you fall behind, it becomes harder to remember what a charge was for or where an income came from. Errors pile up, and you may miss important tax deadlines.

How to avoid it:

Set a weekly time to update your books.

Use reminders or hire a bookkeeper.

Make bookkeeping part of your routine.

Keeping up with your books helps prevent common bookkeeping errors that can hurt your business.

How to Avoid These Bookkeeping Mistakes

Avoiding bookkeeping mistakes for small business is possible with a few changes:

Use accounting software: Tools like QuickBooks or Xero make it easier to track your money.

Hire a bookkeeper or accountant: A professional can manage your books and help you understand your financial reports.

Stay consistent: Set aside time each week to review and update your books.

Keep records: Save all receipts, invoices, and statements.

Ask for help: Don’t wait until tax time to fix mistakes.

Avoiding common bookkeeping errors is not just about fixing mistakes, but building habits that help your business grow.

Final Thoughts

Every small business wants to stay profitable and stress-free. By avoiding the top bookkeeping mistakes for small business owners, you protect your income and stay organized all year round.

If you’re finding it hard to manage your books, don’t wait. SAI CPA Services is here to help. We provide professional bookkeeping and accounting services in New Jersey.

The 7 Accounting Mistakes That Could Be Costing You Thousands

When it comes to running a business, managing finances is one of the most critical responsibilities—and one of the easiest areas to get wrong. Many Australian businesses unknowingly lose thousands every year due to small, seemingly harmless accounting mistakes. Whether you're a startup, a growing SME, or even an established enterprise, having the right accounting services can mean the difference between scaling up and stagnating.

At DFK Benjamin King Money, we’ve seen the long-term impact of common financial missteps. Here are seven accounting mistakes that could be draining your cash flow without you even realising it.

1. Mixing Personal and Business Finances

This is perhaps the most common mistake among small business owners. Using your personal account for business expenses (or vice versa) not only makes tax time a nightmare, but also distorts your actual cash position. Worse, it may put you at risk in the event of an audit.

The fix? Open a dedicated business bank account and use accounting software that allows easy categorisation. A trusted accountant can also help you clean things up fast.

2. Ignoring Regular Reconciliations

Skipping bank reconciliations might seem harmless in the short term, but it’s a silent killer. Errors build up over time, duplicate entries go unnoticed, and fraudulent activity can slip through the cracks.

The fix? Reconcile accounts at least monthly. Outsourced accounting services can do this efficiently and spot red flags early on.

3. DIY Tax Returns (Without Expert Review)

Trying to save a few dollars by lodging your own business tax return? It often ends up costing more. Missed deductions, poor record-keeping, or simply choosing the wrong structure can lead to ATO penalties or overpayment.

The fix? Invest in professional accounting services that not only handle compliance but also ensure you’re optimising your tax strategy year-round.

4. Forgetting About Cash Flow

Profit doesn’t always equal cash. Businesses often look profitable on paper but struggle with actual cash flow. Late-paying clients, over-ordering stock, or rapid expansion can lead to a cash crunch that chokes operations.

The fix? Implement cash flow forecasting. Accountants can help you anticipate shortfalls and plan for growth sustainably.

5. Not Keeping Receipts or Proper Documentation

ATO audits are becoming more data-driven. If you're claiming deductions without supporting documentation, you're walking on thin ice. Poor record-keeping can also mean missed expenses and inaccurate reporting.

The fix? Use cloud-based apps to track receipts and match them with transactions. Good accounting services can integrate these tools into your system seamlessly.

6. Overlooking Payroll Obligations

Whether it’s misclassifying employees, missing super payments, or failing to report on time, payroll errors can quickly snowball into hefty penalties and damage staff trust.

The fix? Work with an accounting firm that understands Australian payroll legislation inside out. DFK Benjamin King Money helps businesses stay compliant and stress-free.

7. Failing to Seek Proactive Advice

Your accountant shouldn’t just be someone you hear from at tax time. Many businesses lose opportunities for growth or savings simply because they don’t get the right advice at the right time.

The fix? Choose an accounting partner who offers proactive, year-round support—from business structuring and BAS to budgeting and strategy.

Why These Mistakes Matter More Than You Think

The hidden cost of poor accounting habits isn't just dollars and cents. It's lost time, unnecessary stress, poor decision-making, and missed opportunities. Over time, these issues compound and can derail even the most promising ventures.

Avoiding these mistakes isn’t about perfection. It’s about having the right systems and support in place.

Final Thoughts: Avoid Mistakes, Unlock Potential

Great accounting services go beyond balancing books—they give you clarity, confidence, and control. Whether you’re struggling with late BAS submissions or looking to streamline your operations, the right support can help you avoid costly pitfalls and move your business forward.

At DFK Benjamin King Money, we help Australian businesses take the guesswork out of accounting. Our experienced team tailors solutions to your specific needs, so you can focus on growth.
