Use the Payer Picklist and Payer Defaults sections to set up which payers may require pre-cert timeframes or allotments other than the default (7 days, 2 visits).
You must set up the Payer Picklist before you can set up the Payer Defaults.
The
Payer Picklist grid comes pre-configured with a default setting of 7 days (from the precertification expiration date) or 2 visits (remaining of the precertification visit allotment) at which time the patient’s name appears on the Pre-Cert Worklog. The
Default row in the grid alerts for all payers except payers otherwise listed in the grid to have a different alerting timeframe.
Note: Only the payers that are configured in the Payer Defaults grid will have appointments that appear in the Appointments Requiring Precerts grid on the Pre-Cert Worklog.
