Scrubbing Claims
Patient accounts with Insurance information entered into the Insurance Demographics section of the Chart will automatically produce a claim when new charges are Posted to the Patient Ledger, and those claims will be placed in the Pending section of the Claims Manager. Claims can be selected for Scrubbing one at a time or random claims or all claims.
1. Click on the claim line to highlight.
To select random claims, Click on a Claim and while holding down the Ctrl key, left click on other claims to highlight. To Select all claims in a section, Click on the first claim to highlight and while holding down the Shift key, Click on the last claim to highlight those two and all the claims in between. This example shows all claims selected
2. Click the Scrub button. Claims will be moved to the Ready To Process section. If the scrubber finds an error on any claims, those claims will be moved to the On Hold section with a description of the error.
Note the Claim number 257 in the red box. This lesson will track that claim from Pending Scrub to Submitting claim.
Insurance remittance/response will use this claim number in the Patient Account section of the EOB to identify the patient.
Claims will be moved to the Ready To Process section unless the scrubber finds error(s) on a claim as shown in this screen shot. Claims with errors will be moved to the On Hold section to be edited/corrected, with a description of the error as seen in this screen shot.
3. Click Ok. The error dialog will continue to prompt you to click OK for each claim that has errors until all selected claims have been scrubbed.
