We do not use AC PM but my biller does get the daily charges off AC and enters them into our billing system.
When we have a pt walk in for a flu shot, for example, and they do not have a scheduled visit, the staff has to open the chart as if it is a visit, go into decision support, enter the vaccine and close the chart. Then they go into accounting and enter the charge for the admin and vaccine.
First, is there a better way to do this?
Second, when it is done this way, though the biller seems to find the charges, the next time I see the patient when I sign off the note and the charge screen comes up, there is the vaccine and admin charge from the flu shot six months earlier and I have to delete it. Something clearly is not right about the way we are doing this.
Thanks
