Description and Usage

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The Claims with Missing Information (By Phy) report should be printed and worked on a daily basis. The report page breaks and subtotals by physician. The last page of the report ages the expected pay under the columns Current, Over 30, Over 60 and Over 90. The last page also gives the total number of claims for each physician.

 

Medical Records may use this report to see what needs to be coded. If they are waiting on the doctor to assign a diagnosis, this report may be used to determine which physicians are holding up the billing.

 

To advance the claim to the Ready to Bill status, the patient’s Account Number should be locked onto, and Insurance should be selected. Verify the Stay Information and all Condition, Occurrence and Value codes in the Coding Screen. After all of this is completed, Detail Charges should be selected. The Ready to Bill and Print Form fields should be selected for all primary claims. Ready to Bill should be selected and Print Form blank for all secondary claims.

 

If a Non-APC Outpatient claim appears on this report, a reason should be noted in the Comment field of the Insurance Claim Status screen. These claims automatically generate from the Approved status to the Ready to Bill status. Any Non-APC Outpatient claims that appear on this report will need to be manually set to Ready to Bill.

 

For an APC claim, the system will advance the claim to the Unchecked status and place “APC Claim” in the Comment field once the claim is autogenned. Once the Medical Records Verification Date has been placed on the account, and APC Claims to Ready-to-Bill report has been run, the claim will move to the Ready to Bill status.

 

NOTE: The advancement of APC claims depend on how the Insurance Company table is set.
