Daily Reports
The Daily reports provide the ability to run reports with full detail. These reports have “drill-down” functionality that enables you to double-click on a record to view or edit its details. The daily Adjustments, Payments, and Refunds reports can be generated By Encounter or By Line Item. These options relate to how the Financial Class and Payer information logic works on the reports. By Encounter: Charges and transactions are attributed to the primary payer on the encounter. For example, if a patient has Medicare primary and Blue Cross secondary, then charges are reported as Medicare, and all transactions posted against those charges are also reported as Medicare. By Line Item: Charges are attributed to the primary payer on the encounter, and transactions are attributed to the actual payer. For example, if a patient has Medicare primary and Blue Cross secondary, then charges are reported as Medicare, all Medicare transactions are reported as Medicare, and all Blue Cross transactions
