We used to invoice via a separate system of paper bills, which involved a printed copy being sent home in an envelope via ‘child mail’. It was a convoluted process and we weren’t always sure if the bills arrived home – inevitably, some copies were misplaced. Electronic billing has hugely reduced the amount of paperwork our staff had to manage previously, and the billing process runs incredibly smoothly.
