Combined Service Sets

Combined Service Sets are used to record two standalone services simultaneously. Combined service sets are helpful when the payer requires two specified services to be billed together—for example, Individual Therapy and an Add-On service.

User Permissions

Admin-level users can create and manage combined service sets without requiring additional permissions. For more information on user profiles and permissions, click here.

Configure The Services

Before a Combined Service Set can be created, the services must be compatible. To do so, use the following checklist:

All services are set as Standalone Services.

The Billing Classification of each service is Medical/Behavioral.

The Place of Service is the same in each service’s default billing profile.

Both default Billing Profiles allow for multiple services to be on the same claim.

Both default Billing Profiles allow for multiple units to be recorded on the same date.

Both services have been referenced at the facility level.

Helpful Hints

The order of the services in a combined set does not dictate the order in which they appear on the claim. To determine that order, open the default billing profile for each service and adjust the sequence priority. The lowest value will always appear first on the claim.
