Action Column Functions

The Action Column contains functions for Store, History, Add a Case, Check Codes, and Recalculate Chg Amts which allow you to perform functions usually associated with procedure entry without having to exit this screen.



Store

With the Store function you can temporarily store the procedures you have entered for the patient.

History

With the History function, you have immediate access to the patient's transaction history in a variety of formats. If you have questions while entering charges, this allows you to hop out of procedure entry, review the patient's history in detail, and upon exiting the review function, come right back to the procedure entry screen to resume entering charges.

Add a Case

With the Add a Case function you can add a case to the patient's account without having to exit Procedure Entry. After you have Saved the new case, the Case field on the Procedure Entry screen is populated with the new value.

Check Codes

With the Check Codes function you can check the accuracy of the codes prior to saving the procedures, if your practice has a current subscription for CGM webCODER.

Recalculate Chg Amts

With the Recalculate Chg Amts function you can recalculate the charge amounts for the procedures entered, applying the current Procedure Code Table prices, Rate Schedules, and Fee Schedules. This is useful if you change a field (such as Per Dr or Billing Group) that affects pricing after the line items were initially entered.
