About

Fee Schedules are complete listings of fees charged for services. They may be viewed and/or edited for an individual CPT code or by CPT code category. If it is necessary to edit an entire fee schedule, use the Global Fee Schedule Edit button rather than editing individual CPT codes or CPT Code categories. Once new fee schedules are entered, they can be assigned to the specific insurance payers by going to Billing tab > Payers. The appropriate fee schedule must be displayed in the Fee Schedule field in order for that schedule to be used on claims for the specific Insurance Payers.

User Permission: Only users who have the permission Billing_FeeSched_Modify can make edits to Fee Schedules.
