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 detail includes 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, select Claim Status Report (By Claim.)

      3. Update the filters to create criteria the system can use to identify which claims will be included in the report. 
      4. 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. Select Create Report.
      6. The system will then automatically download the report to your system in a excel format. 

Available Filters and Definitions

  • The Date Type instructs the system to look for claims who have a date-type that falls within the selected dated range.
     
  • The Start Date and End Date establish a timeframe for the system to locate and include qualifying claims.
  • 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 input the patient's full name to display line items only of claims that patient.
  • 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, or Private Pay patient.
  • The Selected Practices filter allows users to filter search results based on the practice that claims were submitted under.

Viewing the Report

The Claim Status Report (By Claim) 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 one claim is billed with different services, there will be different rows for the same claim, listing the number of units rendered for each service. To view an example of this report, click here.
