POSTING CO-PAYMENTS AFTER THE DATE OF SERVICE

When posting patient co-payments on the date of service, you should always post these payments under the [CO-PAYMENT] field on the discharge screen, or on the patient worksheet.  This will reflect that the payment was posted on the same date as the visit date (at TOS).  Should a patient give you a payment at a later date for a prior date-of-service, you must open the Billing Menu / Claim Worksheet by Patient/ and click on the [PAYMENTS] button for that specific visit date.  You can then post a new  payment and select "Payment Patient" as the payment type.  In this way, the payment we be recorded on that day's Credit Summary Report

SureScripts Training & Enrollment Session 

The SureScripts session last week was well attended.  The practices that attended completed enrollment sheets, which will be used to register those physicians with Surescripts.  Mike will be contacting those sites to schedule a time to load a necessary message engine service on the practice server.  Once this is complete, Ronda will enroll these practices with SureScripts, and schedule go live dates.   If you missed the training session in May, we will be having another session in June. 

Please be sure to RSVP to Ronda at 781-7810 x 106
