Vision Encounter

 

This menu option is used to post additional claim information needed to process a patient’s claim for vision-related claims. Use this form for electronic billing when Utility --►Procedure <Status> = 'V.'

 

See details on adding vision encounter information to a patient’s account in Intellect.

 


 

Updates:

 

Effective version 16.05.20

In prior versions, for the Internal Control Number (ICN) to be included in the Electronic Claims, the ICN had to be entered in the <Internal Control> field. Effective this version, Intellect now pulls the ICN number from the charge. This is handled by Intellect when auto-posting is used to post payments from the payers. This modification is NOT retroactive. Additionally, this ICN now also prints on the printer EOB from Intellect.

 


Effective version 14.07.01

When Intellect looks for a Referring Provider (a.k.a. ordering physician), Intellect first looks at the encounter screen for either <Ordering Provider> or <Supervising Provider> and, when either is blank, Intellect looks at the Utility --►Set Up --►Parameter <Referring> setting and pulls the referring provider based on the setting.

 


 

Effective Version 9.12.27
For clients who complete most of the Encounter screen fields with the same values for each patient, version 9.12.27 allows a 'default' record to be set up with the value to be carried over to all new Encounters.

To set up a default screen, go to Charges --►Encounter. Select the type of Encounter screen the office uses (the sample below is for Generic Encounter), then select Modify. At the <Patient Account No> field, enter 0 (zero). At the <Encounter #> field, enter 0 (zero).


 

Complete any field to default to all new Encounters entered.

Setting up the default encounter screen does NOT affect any encounters already entered.
