Deactivate a Job Code
How to Make a Code No Longer Available for Use
If there are job codes that you no longer want to be used to key in visits or create visits in POC, you may deactivate them. Keep in mind that you may not delete job codes that have been used for visits or billing purposes; however, deactivating the job code prevents their further use in the POC system.
Location in Barnestorm
- Go to Codes > Rates > Job Codes.
Steps to Deactivate a Job Code
- Type the program code and job code to bring up the job code to be deactivated.
- In the Description field, type in DNU at the end of the current description.
