Billing

Self-Pay Billing Workflow: Fees

Self-Pay Only enabled practices can create standard fees to help increase collections by setting the right fees for services. Add the services to the appropriate Visit Reasons to auto-populate the code and fees on new charge captures.

Standard fees are typically the default charges for the practice. You can select to add a new fee schedule either manually, by importing from a CSV file, or by duplicating an existing fee schedule and editing as necessary. 

Note: For practices also using the Desktop Application (PM), standard fee schedules created in the Desktop Application (PM) will automatically display on the Fees page. Any additions or modifications made on the Fees page will also reflect in the Desktop Application (PM).

Charge Capture Settings: Submit to Billing Status

Practices can now enable a permission that allows their Office Staff users to submit charge captures to billing.

Note: The Charge Capture Settings is available for System Administrators to enable the permission but it will not go into effect for the Office Staff users until June 22, 2023. This allows practices to prepare their Office Staff users for the change in their daily workflow.
