Anesthesia Concurrency Audit Log Report

The Anesthesia Concurrency Audit Log report displays the anesthesia charges with associated modifiers and dollar values that populate the claims for both Rendering and MDA providers. It determines and displays the concurrency values and provides a record for use in billing audits. You can use this report to identify encounters that are medically directed and personally performed. It details the encounters that have passed or failed the Anesthesia Concurrency Audit process. If one charge line on the encounter fails, the entire encounter fails the audit. The report compares all encounters that are run through the audit to all other concurrent encounters regardless of the encounter status. It runs on any encounter that has at least one anesthesia charge. To access the report in NextGen® Enterprise PM, Select the Reports menu and select General and then select Anesthesia Concurrency Audit Log. Note: You can only memorize one report for each practice.
