In the below example, the individual charge lines total 0.8 units at $80. Roll-up logic will bill 0.7 units at $70 on the claim. Therefore, during the billing process, a "variance" charge will deduct –0.1 unit at –$10 from the encounter. This ensures that the $70 expected reimbursement from insurance can be posted to a $70 balance in NextGen® Enterprise PM. Otherwise, a $70 reimbursement on an $80 balance would leave a balance.
