Overview
The Concierge Fee screen allows you to bulk charge patients a service fee. You can choose to create superbills or claims for these patients and you can choose to charge each patient individually or charge different amounts based on how many children are under a guarantor.
Disclaimer: Not all payers allow for additional fees. Please review your payer agreements and applicable state laws before charging patients. |
User Permissions: To access the module, you must have the Billing_Concierge security permission. To make the date fields not required and to charge patient’s based on status alone you need to have the Billing_Concierge_Date permission. Only users with this permission will be able to charge patient’s based on status. Otherwise date will be required. |
Correspondent Record and Portal Preference: To use the Concierge Fee window, you must have the DPC correspondent record enabled and the DPC.HAS_CONCIERGE_FEE portal preference set to true in your DB. |
