Claim Status Report (By Claim)

  • Updated

The Claim Status Report (By Claim) is similar to the Claim Status Report (By Service Date), except that the line-item details include the number of units for each service rather than defaulting to one unit per row. Users will be able to select the same column options as in the Claim Status Report By Service Date.

Generating the Report

Let's review how to create the Claim Status Report (By Service Date)! 

  1. Navigate to the Reporting section.
  2. Under Billing Reports, click Claim Status Report (By Claim).
  3. Update the filters to define criteria the system can use to identify which claims to include in the report. 
  4. Then select which columns you would like to include or remove from the report:
    • To add columns: Use the checkboxes to select one or more data points on the Available side. They will automatically appear on the Selected side.
    • To remove columns: Uncheck the selected checkbox on the Available side. 
    • To reorder columns: On the Selected side, click on the desired data point and drag and drop the column into the desired position.
       
  5. Once complete, click Create Report.
  6. The system will then automatically download the report to your system in an Excel format to complete the process. 

Available Filters and Definitions

  • The Date Type instructs the system to look for claims that have a date type that falls within the selected date range.

    • Claim Start Date: This pulls claim data based on the earliest date of service on the claim. 
    • Claim Closed Date: Generates claim data based on the claim's closed date. 
    • Claim First Submitted Date: This will generate claim data based on the day the claim was submitted to the clearinghouse (or marked as submitted)
    • Claim Follow-Up Date: This generates claim data based on the current follow-up date of a claim. 

  • The Start Date and End Date define the timeframe within which the system locates and includes qualifying claims whose dates of service fall within that timeframe.
  • The Claim State filter allows users to include or omit certain claims based on their current state. The default Claim State is All, but can be updated to Closed, Discontinued, Open, or Voided.
  • The Patient Name Filter allows a user to enter the patient's full name to display only line items for that patient's claims.
  • The A/R Classification filter includes or omits claims based on a patient's A/R status.  The default A/R Classification is set to All, but can be updated to Insurance (Only), Mixed Insurance/Private Pay, Private Pay (Only), or Scholarship.
  • The Selected Practices filter allows users to filter search results based on the practice under which claims were submitted.

Viewing the Report

This report is available for download as an Excel file. It generates a table in which each row represents a claim service, and each column contains different pieces of information about that claim. If a claim is billed under different services, there will be separate rows for the same claim, each listing the number of units rendered for each service.
