Within the last few weeks a few of our HHC3000 Clinical users have reported a problem with H485s not showing in the Patient’s Document Log and not going back down to the Clinical software from the HHC3000 software for Final Approval.
If you have been experiencing this problem then please update your HHC3000 software to version 4830.
There is a new clinical update currently available. Version 2043.
This update includes a fix for a few clients who were calling with intermittent issues where the Billing Amount was not calculating.
With Version 4825 there will be a new button in the billing menu called “ANSI 5010 Testing.” This option will allow you to begin ANSI 5010 testing for electronic billing other than PPS billing. When selected the screen looks and functions just like the regular ANSI billing program. We have no way of testing the file outputs, we will be relying on feedback from our agencies.
Build 2037 is currently available for our HHC3000 Clinical (point of care) users. Please have your clinicians update their laptops as soon as possible.
Along with a few minor bug fixes, we have added the ‘View Most Recent’ options button into each of the assessment sub-screens.
There is a new update currently available for HHC3000 users experiencing an access violation error when trying to create an H485 from a Comprehensive assessment. The update version 4817.
Some insurance companies are now requiring a source of admission for the ANSI electronic billing. Bravo is one of those insurance companies requiring the source of admission for which we have had several calls. To make sure the information is included in ANSI billing you should go to Insurance Companies / ANSI and check “Add 2300 CL1 Patient Status / Source of Admit Record.” You then have 2 options, either go to Patients / Insurance / UB04 and enter the source of admission at the bottom of the screen for each patient, or go into Other Setup / Referral (Admission) and select a” ANSI Billing Source of Admission Default.” The second option will pull from admission to agency records. The patient screen will supercede the other setup default.
In Other-Setup / System Overrides / Billing we added the option to exclude HCPCS codes from being automatically entered into the visit screen during data entry. We also added the ability under Insurance Companies to not pull the HCPCS codes in visits for just that insurance company. If you default the system to not automatically pull in the HCPCS codes, you can go into Insurance Companies and allow individual insurance companies to pull in the HCPCS code into visits.
Available in Build 4810 in the patient visit screen is a new check box, “Medicare Non-Covered.” You will need to check this box if you want the visit in PPS billing to show as non-covered. In addition, there must be a $ value in the amount field.
The communications listing has been changed. The date signed/returned has been added to the printout along with a parameter to run the report just for communications that have not been returned.
Several agencies have reported minor issues with a recent version of the HHC 3000 Clinical. We have corrected these items. Please have your Clinicians update to version 2033 as soon as possible.
