Precert Worklog

The Precert Worklog is a practice-level template that you can use to manage patient appointments that require pre-certification or that have a pre-cert that is about to expire.

The Precert Worklog has the following panels.
  • Appointments Requiring Precerts
  • Expiring/Expired Precerts by Visits & Never Precerted
  • Expiring/Expired Precerts by Units

You can use the Launch Chart button to open a patient’s chart and update any patient-specific pre-certification information.
