CCI Validation from Charge Master and Charge Entry

The workflow to run the claims validation rule from both the Charge Entry and Charge Master screens will remain the same. If claim validation with CMS Pricer is enabled for the practice, the system will validate claims using both the internal rules and CMS Pricer. CE and CM screens will show the errors from CMS Pricer, followed by internal validation errors. The same applies to the XSuperbill screen.

CCI Error Bucket in Claim Workbench

Claims Workbench has a new bucket to include all the encounters that have validation errors at the time of claim generation.

This bucket is only available to accounts that have CMS Pricer enabled.

Workflow

While generating the claims from the Ready to Submit Bucket, when the user checks the Run Claim Validation check box, a Claim Rule validation pop-up appears with errors, warnings, and messages of the encounters submitted; see Image 2.
