Office Therapy - Statement Options in Office TherapyAA-00405Simplify Statements
in Office Therapy Office Therapy statements can range from simple to complex,
depending on your client’s needs and your preferences. Under the Bill Setup tab in Client setup, you can choose
from 3 Format options: Basic, Your Portion, or e-Statements. The latter is used
to send statements to the Trizetto clearinghouse for mailing or posting
on-line. This option allows for a greater degree of customization. The Basic Bill Format
shows transactions for a selected period and the amounts, including Insurance
and Patient portions. The Your Portion Bill Format shows transactions for a selected period, with a column for the total and one for the patient portion. This format is often easier for patients to follow.
They can see the total charged and what they owe for each service with the
total at the bottom. Other options on statements include: Under Client setup – Bill Setup ·
Print client name – Prints the client’s name in
the top left part of the Statement ·
Print diagnosis
– Prints the client’s diagnosis code(s) (e.g. F34.1) in the top left part
of the Statement ·
Print first visit date – Prints the client’s 1st
visit in the top left part of the Statement ·
Print provider information – Prints the
rendering provider name in the top left part of the Statement ·
Print Procedure code – Prints the procedure code
for the charge. For example: Date Procedure Charges and Credits Amount Your Portion 09/09/2016 90834 Individual
therapy 45 minute $100 $20.00 Option when generating the Statements Using the Billing Wizard These options can be set when generating a statement. They are saved so that the next time you generate statements, the same settings are used.
· Overdue messages – you can print an overdue message based on the number of months without payment, print aging information (e.g. 30/60/90 days), or omit an overdue message · Print your company name and address with or without phone number - shows at the top of the statement · Print your Provider’s name and address - shows at the top of the statement. Also see Provider setup to select data to print to Statements (Tax ID, License, NPI) · Do not print company nor provider name or address · Print insurance filing history – this will display along with the charge line, when the charge was filed to insurance (e.g. Individual Therapy 45 minutes(filed to Blue Cross on 2/12/2015)) · Print deductible notes – when entering a payment and using the Apply to Deductible to reallocate the amount to the patient, this option shows the details of that reallocation on the statement. In the example below, the insurance company did not pay the entire amount because there was a deductible. So, of the total amount of $100, the insurance paid $50 and you shift the other $50 to the patient for the deductible. The Statement will reflect that the deductible was applied to the patient.
