Procedure Detail

 

 

The following fields are available on this screen:

 

Revenue Center: Used to designate the place of service where the procedure was performed. When entering the code associated with where the service was incurred, TruBridge EHR will pull the HCPC to the correct line on the insurance claim.

 

NOTE: Setup is required to make this happen, for more information please see the additional documentation on Revenue Centers.

 

Date: The date the procedure was performed.  A Date Picker is available for ease of entry.

 

Physician: These fields reference the physician(s) who performed the procedure. Up to two physicians can be associated with each procedure. Select the magnifying glass icon to display the Patient's Physician List. Double-click the correct physician. If the physician is not listed, use the Add and Add Type options to update the list, see Patient's Physicians for more details.

 

NOTE: The Attending, Primary, Secondary, and ER physician's will automatically pull to this list from the Census screens. If the surgeon is also the Attending physician, then the Attending physician will need to be added again with the Type set to Surgeon.

 

Once the fields have been addressed, select Update. The Procedure List will display.
