Home Forums Discussions General Discussion Newbie needs printed superbills

I'm trying to convert over to the AC scheduler. Is there a way to import or create a custom superbill and subsequently print it out each day for the schedule. My biller still wants a printed superbill and I agree that it works well.

My current PM software allows a custom superbill that we print in a batch for the entire daily schedule at once. I think it will be much simpler for the front office to only have to use one piece of software to communicate everything with as well as do daily superbills.

thanks

Generating a super bill with pt name, billing information and a pt balance due off the schedule would be great.

That would be a "wish list".

I don't think there is any way to generate the super bills off the scheduler yet.

Ouch. That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the reply.

So is everyone who uses AC scheduler and likes printed superbills simply having their staff go to their PM system and individually print out each superbill for the patients scheduled that day. Seems like a useless step from my front office just so I can have the schedule in AC. Our current PM system prints the entire daily schedules superbills with one click if the patients are on the schedule.

I'm trying to make my office more efficient and not less.

Yes.

JTU,

I just recently stopped using the scheduler in my PM program and changed over to the one in AC. There were several trade-offs. Like you, I find it a little cumbersome to have to go back to the PM program to print off the superbills but I figure this cancels out the time my staff used to spend pulling the day's charts from the paper file rack. I miss not being able to look at the AC schedule and see if there is a balance due. I miss not being able to look at the scheduler and see what the copay is. I miss not having another space to leave additional comments such as "confirmed appointment". But, since my PM program charges by the station, I was not able to put the schedule on every computer. Using the scheduler in AC I can now see the schedule while in the exam rooms, I can know when a patient's next appointment is, I can know how many DNKAs they might have had, I can find when the next Bone Density Scan run will be, etc. So, for the most part, I prefer using AC. I am hopeful many of these issues will be addressed when the PM side of AC is released.
