VOB Settings

With this section, a Managing Organization Admin can configure the Hours of Operation, Create an Eligibility Schedule, and set the Time Zone for the Verification of Benefits. These hours of operation combined with the SLA set in the Practice Admin will determine when a Patient's VOB is marked as overdue in the Management Center.

Service Level Agreements are configured for each organization by an implementation specialist using information from the workbook. The Verification SLA (in Business Hours) field means that after those number of hours have passed, the patient will be placed into the Overdue section of the Management Center.

Users

Only Managing Organization Admins can access and alter the settings located within the Managing organization.
