Roll-Up Billing by Revenue Code

Roll-Up Billing by Revenue Code provides the ability to roll-up multiple charges on an encounter into one line item on the claim. Each line item represents a specific revenue code. This setup could be used for Medicare at a Rural Health Center to create a claim where all non-preventive services are rolled-up to a single 0521 revenue code line item.
