No Charge: is used for anything that was billed incorrectly or for a service the Provider does not want to charge.
No Show: is used when a patient does not show for their appointment.
Adjust-to-Paid: is used for any overpayments or underpayments. It assumes the amount paid is correct and adjusts the billed amount to the paid amount.
Write-Off: is for claims that should have been paid, but have not. A Write-Off report can be submitted for tax purposes at year end.
If a claim was made from an appointment in the Scheduler, you can quickly view that appointment.
Any claims that are returned to Not Reconciled may be adjusted and then marked for resubmission.
Assigning a tracking pin is an easy way to mark a specific claim of interest. All claims with tracking pins attached can be viewed on the Tracked Claims tab.
Once all claims are complete and ready to be submitted, they can all be submitted together rather than having to process each one individually.
