How to Run the Report
02.34 Report Match Charges To Active Patients
- From / Thru= Enter the dates of charges to include.
- Program(s) / Payer(s) = Filter report by entering program and payer numbers. Or leave blank to select all.
Select all to apply to report:
A - Charges Outside Admit/DC Dates - This option will generate a list of patients who have charges before admit date or after discharge date.
B - Patients With No Chargeable Visits - This option will generate a list of patients that have no chargeable visits during the from/thru dates you have entered.
C - Patients With Chargeable Visits < 8 minutes long - This option will generate a list of patients with chargeable visits < 8 minutes.
D - Patients With Visits With Overlapping Times - This option will generate a list of patients with overlapping visits.
Additional option to check Assessments instead of visits. Additional option to skip supe visits. You must add part of a description to skip. Additional option to skip if overlapping time is less than 8 minutes.
E - Patient Charges With Missing Payers - This will find charges that have been entered with one payer but that payer does not exist on the patient's referral.
F - Patients With < 30 minutes charged (This will only show up for an CAP/PCS agency) Finds all charges that are less than 30 minutes.
G - Patients With Mismatched JobCode and PayerCode - (This will only show up for an CAP/PCS agency) This option is only to be used by agencies that purposely setup their payer codes and job codes to match. Example: A CAP/PCS agency would setup the payer code 001 for PersonalCare and also setup the job code 001 for personal care services. If they only need to use the one job code 001 for all patients that use payer code 001 then this report will let them know if there are any unmatched visits – where both payer and job codes do not match. This report should be ran after all visits are entered for the week/month but before billing batches are created.
H - Match Visits to M0150
I - Mismatched EVV Visits - This will only show up for CAP/PCS agency. This option will only work on entries that have been imported for billing. It will compare the time in and out from the EVV Visits to Visit Entry and pull any with mismatched time or missing EVV Visit.
- After you've made your selections hit Print.
Validate Visits vs. Sandata EVV spreadsheet - Ohio customers only
This feature is used to verify visits that are keyed into the Barnestorm system to the Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) system to check that visit times and types are accurate.
- After the agency has verified and downloaded the spreadsheet, use this feature to compare the EVV system to the Barnestorm system to verify required data is correct.
- Use the browse box (at File Name) to locate the folder where you saved the EVV spreadsheet.
