Billed Amount on Claim Doesn't Match A/R Amount Billed


This commonly happens when a visit/supply has been added or deleted, and the A/R has not been updated.

a.  From Barnestorm Office, go to Accounts Receivable tab.

b.  Select Post Charges to A/R

c.  At Month To Be Transferred, enter the month that shows the incorrect balance.

d.  At Transfer Just One Chart #, check the box and enter the Chart Number that shows the incorrect balance.

POSTING OPTIONS:

Option 1:  Selecting (1) Create and View Charges button

First,you will click the (1) Create and View Charges button.  A report of charges to be created will generate.  Next, you will need to click the (2) Transfer Created Charges to A/R button to transfer those charges.  A duplicate report will appear from the Create and View Charges step.  We recommend using Step 1 and 2 Separate, if you would like to review the charges before posting them.

Option 2:  Selecting the (2) Create and Transfer Charges button will create and post the charges all in one click of the button.  Remove Any Previously Posted Amounts For: If this button is selected, the system will remove any previously posted amounts for that month (for that chart).  You will receive a popup confirming that you want to delete those previously posted amounts.  Select Yes or No to proceed.  NOTE:  This popup will only appear after choosing Option 1 or Option 2.


This will update A/R, for that patient.
