Create Collection File
This menu option is used to create a collection file for accounts with unpaid balances. Once created, the file is first displayed, then it may be viewed by either 'Worked' or 'Un-worked' status. It is designed for internal use. If a file is created and some accounts are left 'Un-worked,' those accounts are NOT included in future Collection Files until they have been 'Worked.'
See details on creating a collection file.

Updates:
Effective version 15.02.17 - Modification
Intellect saves the operator code and the clinic date whenever a charge is modified in Charges --►Charge Review, Ledger --►Create Collection, and/or the Ledger --►Review Collection screens.
Effective version 9.12.14, if creating an XML file from the Create Collection or Review Collection screens, the phone number for all insurances on file for the patient, and the patient home phone number, are included in the XML file.
Note: The XML file is usually used to provide patient, insurance, and charge information to the out-of-office collection agency.

Effective version 9.12.10:
9. Min. Balance
9.1 This field is used to limit individual charges which have a balance equal to or greater than the entered amount.
9.2 If this field is populated, it works as follows: Intellect totals the balance per patient on all the charges which match the selection criteria entered. It then compares the patient's total balance with the <Min Balance> entered:
9.2.1 If the total balance is greater than or equal to the amount entered in the <Min Balance> field, the patient records are added to the collection file.
9.2.2 If the patient's total balance is less than the amount entered in <Min Balance>, the charges are NOT added to the collection file. For example: If selecting Who = G and Date of Service is between 01/01/2008 and 05/31/2008 and Min Balance is entered as 100.00:
• If the patient balance is greater than or equal to $100.00, the records are added to the file.
• If the total is $99.99 or less, Intellect does not add to the collection file.
9.3 If the <Min Balance> field is left blank (the default), any patient balance greater than zero is added to the collection file.
10.1 This field is used to limit the file to accounts that have a particular Patient Category.
10.2 Type a Utility --► Category <Category Code> OR leave blank to select all patient categories. There is no default.

• Category codes separated by commas with no spaces:
• an asterisk * to return all Categories starting with the portion of the code entered prior to the *. For example, M* prints all Categories whose code begins with M.
11. Insurance Code
11.1 This field is used to limit the file to accounts that have a particular insurance company. Intellect looks to see what is in <Who>. If P is selected (primary) than the patient's primary insurance must match what is in <Insurance Code>. If <Who> is S, then the insurance in <Insurance Code> must be the secondary. The system looks for charge records where the Primary or Secondary (dependent upon <Who>) matches what is entered in <Insurance Code>.
11.2 Type the Utility --► Insurance --► Insurance <Insurance Co. Code> OR leave blank to select all insurances. There is no default.
11.3 This field accepts multiple values:

Effective version 9.12.10
All versions prior to 9.12.10
15. Assign To
15.1 Effective version 9.12.31 - New Field.
15.2 This field allows the operator who is creating the collection file to assign it to another operator. For example, as of version 9.12.31, a supervisor can create the files for the collection staff.
15.3 Press [F2] in this field to list all the operators within the client. Highlight and press [Enter], OR double-click to select the operator.
15.4 The collection person brings up the file through Ledger --►Review Collection the same as usual. If the person who created the file worked any accounts, they remain in the file assigned to the collection person and are marked as Worked, the same as usual.
16. When the information is completely entered, select one of these options:
16.1 If the conditions are valid, select [Create] to create and display the collection file.

Once valid conditions are set on the Create Collection File screen and the [Create] button is pressed, Intellect displays the newly created collection file with the focus on the first line on the multi-line display area. The file is sorted as requested per the <Sort By (W/A/I)> field (see above), and then grouped by ascending account numbers within the sort condition.
• Collection files first appear with all entries in an 'un-worked' status.
• All collection files are identified by the date they are created.
• Only one collection file can exist for any calendar date.
• Generating a new collection file, regardless of properties, on a date where a collection file already exists adds to the already-existing collection file.
• Once a collection file is created, the data is kept for future reference.
There are 3 areas within the collection file: the Display Header, the Multi-line Display, and the Action Buttons. See sample:
Note1: Several fields in the Multi-line Display area were modified in the version 9.12.11 update. See additional information in the Multi-line Display section.
Note2: Effective version 13.07.08, the previous Action Buttons are now titled 'Tag Options' and two new buttons were added. Additionally, 'Highlight Option' buttons are now available. See specifics in the Action Buttons section.
The Display Header includes:
• Patient demographics, as completed in the Patient Registration screen.
• Insurance-specific information, as completed in the Patient Insurance screen. This information reflects primary and secondary insurers at the time of posting for each procedure highlighted or tagged in the Multi-line Display. If there is a conflict between the insurance at the time posted and the patient Insurance, Intellect displays the insurance code in the Primary and Secondary fields in red.
The multi-line display shows the selected individual patient accounts. See column definitions below.
Note: The patient accounts are in order as requested per the <Sort By (W/A/I)> field on the Create Collection File screen, and then grouped by ascending account numbers within the sort condition.
Per the Version 9.12.11 update, several fields were modified:
• To make the screen easier to read, the 'total' line separating each patient displays in green.
• The focus may be moved by clicking on a desired line. Previously, the program required the use of the down arrow to move the focus.
• The <C> (command) column on the left side of the table has been removed, though all the same features are still available by clicking anywhere on the Collection File and pressing the [F2] key to display the valid choices.
When Collection Files are initially displayed, all entries appear in an 'un-worked' status. The entries may be worked using the Key's Help options, the Right-click Menu options, and the Action Buttons. Some of the options are designed to produce a printout, in which case a printer dialog box displays.

Updates:
The <Billing Provider>, <Facility>, <Referring Dr>, <Category>, <Insurance Code>, and <Sec. Insurance> fields require validation of entered values. In the past, pressing [Enter] was the only method to check the validity of the field input. Effective version 13.08.20, field input can be validated regardless of whether a mouse or the [Enter] key is used.
Effective version 19.03.26: Three new fields, the <Copay Due>, <Deduct Due>, and <Co-Ins Due> fields, were added to the Charge Information screen to allow the modification of the unpaid copay, deductible, and co-insurance for a charge.
Effective version 18.07.18 - New field. Prior to this release, it was found that when posting charges with an encounter that also had a lab in the encounter and the encounter was no longer attached to the charge, the lab was still attached to the charges and printing in Box 32 and was also being included in the electronic 837 submission in NM1-77. As of version 18.07.18, a <Lab> field was added to the Charge Information window to allow the LAB to be removed from the charge history.
Effective version 15.09.02 - New Field. The <EN#> field was added to this screen, allowing an encounter that already exists to be entered.
