Description
X-Superbill is used for charge entry and editing of bulk data. It facilitates billing of multiple patients simultaneously in a single screen and saves them to PracticeSuite. Bulk Patient Data coming in through the interfaces are processed using the X-Superbill screen.
Features
1. Users Can Bulk-Hold lines in the X-Superbill
X-Superbill screen has line sub-status for bulk Holding of lines (see Image A). The created Sub statuses can be named with the Reason for holding the line.
A. To begin with, the sub status drop-down would be empty. Users can create HOLD_type sub statuses under the Advanced Setup-Billing Lookups page. A status with prefix HOLD_ will be treated as hold bucket and will be displayed in the X-Superbill sub status combo box. User can define multiple HOLD buckets (eg. HOLD_AUTH_PENDING, HOLD_REVIEW_PENDING).
B. Users can move selected claims to the HOLD sub status and clear off the HOLD sub status to push it back to their original bucket.
C. Lines with HOLD_type Sub Status will be excluded from claim generation in the Claims Workbench.
Image A Highlights HOLD_type buckets and the corresponding sub status drop-down.
2. X-Superbill Lines Can Be Moved in bulk To Other Statuses
X-Superbill permits bulk moving of lines in a given status to other permissible statuses which are valid transitions from the given one. BILL_TO PR lines can be moved to BILL_TO_PT, BILL_TO_GR, HOLD and VOID. Select the lines and then select appropriate status from the Status drop-down at the bottom and click on Process button; see Image B showing bulk status change of lines in Rebill_To_SE bucket.
