Account Module InsEstimate

Post by steveng » Mon Jul 07, 2008 8:52 pm

We use insurance fee schedules and our estimated figure is correct only OD uses submitted figure instead to calculate balances. why? Version 5.6.36

The top bar, where the balances are, shows our fees billed to insurance as estimated amount instead of the correct one that is properly identified on the claim estimated amount.
Thanks,

Sorry, I don't understand the question. It looks like 366 of work was done, 177 will be written off, and 189 will be paid. So that's zero. I'm assuming the 177 writeoff is due to you having signed up as a preferred provider for a PPO. Everything looks to be in order.

The calculations are correct. The one confusing item is the -InsEst where one would expect to see the $189 instead of $366. Then, write off amount has to go somewhere next to totals.

Maybe like this?

If only we had space on the screen for everything. It's a constant battle.
