    will have been completed manually so that charges created by the conversion may easily be passed to the Accounts Receivable package (and thus billed to the patient).

  • LAST EDITED:  AUG 04, 1995
  • HELP-PROMPT:  Type a Number between 1 and 999999999999, 0 Decimal Digits
  • DESCRIPTION:  This field contains the task number of a job that is scheduled to run which performs all clean-up tasks when an Insurance Company is deleted. After the tasked job runs to completion, the value of this field will be
    deleted.
  • TECHNICAL DESCR:  This field is used to control background processing when an Insurance Company is deleted. When a company is 'deleted' using the Delete Company action within the Insurance Company editor, a background task needs to be
    queued to perform final clean-up tasks. This job searches several files and is queued to run during non-business hours. However, if subsequent companies are also deleted before the queued job runs, it would not be
    desirable to queue another job.
    The task number for the background job for the first deleted company is stored in this field. The value is then used when subsequent companies are deleted, to determine if another job should be queued or not. When a
    company is deleted, if this field contains a task number, and that task number is queued to run, then a second task will not be queued. The queued job will delete the value from this field at job completion.

6.01 CLAIMS TRACKING START DATE 6;1 DATE

  • INPUT TRANSFORM:  S %DT="EX" D ^%DT S X=Y K:Y<1 X
  • LAST EDITED:  AUG 04, 1993
  • DESCRIPTION:  If you choose to run the claims tracking module and populate the files with past episodes of care, this is the date that the routine will use to start.
    This is the main parameter that contro what past care can be entered into claims tracking. At no time does the software automatically add entires older than this date. The one exception is that this parameter does not
    affect the entries that may be added to claims tracking using the add tracking entry action on the main claims tracking screen.
6.02 INPATIENT CLAIMS TRACKING 6;2 SET
  • '0' FOR OFF;
  • '1' FOR INSURED AND UR ONLY;
  • '2' FOR ALL PATIENTS;

  • DESCRIPTION:  This field determines what inpatients will automatically be added to the claims tracking module. If this parameter is set to "OFF" then no new patients will be added. If this is set to "INSURED AND UR ONLY" then only the
    insured patients and random sample patients will be added. If this is set to "ALL PATIENTS" then a record of all admissions will be created.
    If a patient is not insured then each record will be so annotated automatically on creation and no follow-up will be required. The advantage of tracking all patients is that you can determine the percentage of billable
    cases and make necessary adjustments if the patients are later found to have insurance. The disadvantage is that additional capacity is used.
6.03 OUTPATIENT CLAIMS TRACKING 6;3 SET
  • '0' FOR OFF;

  • DESCRIPTION:  This field determines if outpatient visit dates will automatically be entered into the claims tracking module. If this is answered "OFF" then no entries will be entered. If this is answered "INSURED ONLY" then only
    outpatient visits for insured patients will be added. If this parameter is set to ALL PATIENTS then the outpatient visits for all patients will be added to claims tracking.
    Initially we recommend this parameter be set to INSURED ONLY.
6.04 PRESCRIPTION CLAIMS TRACKING 6;4 SET
  • '0' FOR OFF;
  • '1' FOR INSURED ONLY;
  • '2' FOR ALL PATIENTS;

  • LAST EDITED:  AUG 04, 1993
  • DESCRIPTION:  This field determines if prescriptions will automatically be entered into the claims tracking module. If this is answered "OFF" then no prescriptions or refills will be entered. If this is answered "INSURED ONLY", then
    only prescriptions and refills will be added if the patient is insured. If all is choose then an entry for all prescriptions will be entered.
    If a prescription or refill does not appear to be billable, that is it may be for SC care, or there is a visit date associated with that prescription or refill, this will be so noted in the reason not billable.
6.05 PROSTHETICS CLAIMS TRACKING 6;5 SET
  • '0' FOR OFF;
  • '1' FOR INSURED ONLY;
  • '2' FOR ALL PATIENTS;

  • LAST EDITED:  AUG 04, 1993
  • DESCRIPTION:  This field will be used to determine if prosthetics should be tracked in the claims tracking module. If this parameter is set to OFF, then no prosthetic entries will be added to claims tracking. If this is set to INSURED
    ONLY then only parameter entries for insured patients will be added to claims tracking. If this is set to ALL PATIENTS then an entry will be created for all patients prosthetic items.

  • LAST EDITED:  JAN 25, 1994
  • HELP-PROMPT:  Enter the Status that an Inpatients PTF record should have before the automated biller attempts to create a bill for that inpatient stay.
  • DESCRIPTION:  This is the status that a PTF record must be in before the automated biller will attempt to create an inpatient bill.
    The auto biller will use the Frequency, Billing Cycle and Days Delay parameters to decide when to try to create an inpatient bill. However, the auto biller can not set up a bill until the PTF record is Closed. Of the two
    dates, the date calculated from the site parameters or the date that the PTF record meets the Status entered here, the bill will be created on the later date.
  • TECHNICAL DESCR:  This set of codes should exactly mirror the PTF Status (45,6) set of codes, except for Open.
    Some sites want to wait until the PTF is closed before a bill is created because they know it will be coded at that time. Others do not want to bill until the PTF record has been transmitted and they know that it is
    complete.
    After this had been added it was decided that an auto bill should not be created for inpatients until after the PTF record has been closed. So, the option of creating an auto bill when the PTF record was still open was
    removed.

    electronic processing. For example, if the automated bill transmitter should run only once a week, this number would be 7. If the automated bill transmitter should run every night, then the number should be 1. If this
