Hygiene production

[Robert_dds]

I have 4 ops. Op. 4 is set up for hygenist only. Daily production under Appt. tab shows total production for for op.1 to op. 3 only. Why not including hygenist production also??? Is this right?

Is there a way to print out report to show separate production for Dr. and Hygenist at the end of the day?

If I understand your problem, you have to set you appt view up to include op 4 or hygiene. To do this goto setup - appt views and then double click on the view you use. Here is where you can add the op 4/hygeine.

In regards to the daily print out .... yes you can. Go to reports, then under production and income select more options. You can then select date ranges and what providers you want for those date ranges.

Hope this helps,

1. I believe the key is to add the hygiene provider to the appt view.
2. It would be two separate reports, one for each provider.

I tried to print the report the way that you showed but for some reason the hygenist's production is only included prophy and not SRP, exam, and x-ray. Am I supposed to specify what codes should be included for hygenist's production?

This is a guess, but perhaps the procedures which are not showing up as hygiene production are being credited/applied to a different provider's production when they get billed, for example the treating dentist.

I am the dentist and everything is being billed out under my name, is that what you mean? I thought once you specified certain operatory belongs to the hygenist, then everything that is done in that op. is under her production.

[DavidWolf]

I only credit my hygienist for the prophy everything else (the exam and radiographs) gets booked to my production.
Open up a completed hygiene appointment and look at the provider for the individual procedures, if it doesn't have the hygienist as the provider for the procedures which are not showing up, I think we may have figured out why the report is not working.

[jordansparks]

Look in the Account module, Prov column. That will tell you which provider the procedure is being assigned to.

We have it so that the hygenists gets production credit for prophys, x-rays, perio maint, and srp. Exams are credited to the providing dentists.

[Robert_dds]

please show me how you program to do that. Thanks.

please show me how you program to do that. Thanks.

First, with the create or edit appt. screen open (double click a scheduled hygeine appt) do you have a dentist and hygenist selected? If not, you need to have you as provider and your hygenist selected as hygenist. Try that and see what happens.

[parksjdp]

A couple other things that you will need to do. Under set-up and opertories, make sure that your hygenist is listed, along with the dentist as the provider for that op.

Also, goto lists and procedure codes. Identify what codes you would like the hygenist to get credit for production, double click on the code and select it as "is hygiene procedure". Once you have these selected and as long as you have your hygenist listed as the provider for that appt. it should code the production correctly for you.

Hope that helps,

Did this help? Have you got your reports and production views looking good.

It seems to work fine now that I went into procedure list and specified which procedure should be under hygenienist.
