9 Setup Overview Lesson 1: Setup Overview You will find all of the setup items located under the Setup submenu of the Client Billing menu. This is where all of the setup specific to your agency is located and from which other areas of the Client Billing Module will pull from for data needed to most efficiently utilize the billing features. The method in which you manage each of the setup items in the Client Billing Module is consistent from item to item. For example, the way you add, edit and delete items throughout the software is always the same.. 9

10 Setup Overview. Adding a New Item Tip You can add an item as you are using the software by pressing F7. To add a new item: 1. Click Add. The dialog box will become active. 2. Enter the required information and click Save. 10

11 Setup Overview Modifying Items Tip You can modify an item as you are using the software by entering its code in a lookup box or highlighting it in a list box and pressing F8. To modify an item: 1. Find the item you want to modify. 2. Click Edit. 3. Modify the information as needed and click Save.. 11

12 Setup Overview. Deleting Items Tip If an item is in use or has any history, you will not be able to delete it. Most items do have the option to make the item inactive (by clearing the Active check box). Doing so will prevent the item from being used in the future. If you find that you need to use the item later, you can always make it active again. Otherwise, you can modify the description of the item to include the words Do Not Use. To delete an item: 1. Find the item you want to delete. 2. Click Delete. 3. Click Yes to delete the item (or No to cancel). 4. Click OK to close the confirmation window. 12

13 Setup Overview Creating a Listing To create a listing of items: 1. Click Listing from the dialog box. You will see a print preview of the listing: 2. From here, you can print the listing or save it to a standard format by pressing CTRL + E. For details on saving to other formats, see the Getting Started User s Guide. 3. Click the X in the upper right corner to close the print preview.. 13

14 Service Types. Lesson 2: Service Types A service type refers to the type of service being performed and is the complete list of services provided by an organization. A service type can be one of four types: worked time direct, units, non-worked time and worked time indirect. The non-worked time and worked time indirect service types are only used if you are merging time over to the Payroll Module to pay your employees for all time worked. The billing codes for each service type are set up at the funding source level. Each service type can be used by multiple funding sources and have different bill codes associated with it depending on each funding source s billing requirements. When thinking about what service types your agency provides its clients and how they relate to the funding source and then eventually to the client there are a few things to remember. First, you may not need a specific service type for every bill code you bill. Meaning that if you have a day habilitation service type and you provide day habilitation for two clients with different bill codes (for example, AHA and DSRV), both bill codes could go under your service type for day habilitation as long as each client could only have one of the bill codes during a contract period. Therefore if client one has a bill code of AHA and client two has a bill code of DSRV both of these bill codes can be under the day habilitation service type. Note, this would not be true if client one had both AHA and DSRV bill codes. This would necessitate two separate service types because the client can have both bill codes simultaneously. Service Type: Day Habilitation Service Type: Homemaker/ Personal Care Service Type: Transportation Service Type: Direct Care Bill Code: AHA Bill Code: ABC Bill Code: CHA Bill Code: CBA Bill Code: DSRV Bill Code: QRST Bill Code: DHA Bill Code: TSRQ Before you can add a service type, you may need to set up these items: Balance Sheet Account Codes Income Statement Account Codes Job Titles* (see the Payroll Module User s Guide) Payroll Cost Centers* (see the Payroll Module User s Guide) * If you are also using the Payroll Module and will be merging client billing transactions to it. 14

15 Service Types To add a new service type: 1. On the Module menu, point to Client Billing and then point to Setup and click Service Types. 2. Click Add from the Service Types dialog box. 3. Type or select the following information as required. Code* Type or select: A unique, alphanumeric code for the service type. This code will be used in service type lookup boxes throughout the software. Description* Type A meaningful description of the service type. This description will appear in service type list boxes throughout the software. Work Time Direct - time spent directly with a client. Work Time Indirect - time worked, but not directly with a client (for example an inservice training session). Non-Work Time- paid time off (time for which the employee is paid, but does not actually work, for example, jury duty, vacation, personal and holiday). Unit - a type of service that is billed by the unit, such as mileage and social work, and is not usually related to time.. 15

16 Service Types. Default BS Account Default IS Account Job Title Cost Center Pay Rate Level Billable Use Begin/End Time Work Performed at Cost Center Don t Send to Payroll No Error Checking Type or select: The default balance sheet (accounts receivable) account. If a default balance sheet account is also set up in the funding source, this one will override it. If you enter a default BS account, the software will automatically fill it in during contract detail entry, thus saving data entry time. You can then override it at the contract detail level if needed. The default income statement (revenue) account. If a default income statement account is also set up in the funding source, this one will override it. If you enter a default IS account, the software will automatically fill it in during contract detail entry, thus saving data entry time. You can then override it at the contract detail level if needed. The job title code (or press F2 to browse for it) to use if merging to the Payroll Module and Use Job Title From Service Type is selected from the Job Title Type list box on the Payroll tab of the Options dialog box. The payroll cost center s code (or press F2 to browse for it) to use if merging to the Payroll Module and Use From Service Type is selected from the Cost Center Type list box on the Payroll tab of the Options dialog box. The pay rate level (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8) to use if merging the employee s time to the Payroll Module. If you select a force pay level during time transaction entry, it will overwrite the pay level selected here. If you enter a number other than 1-8, you will receive an error message when you try to merge a time transaction using this service type to the Payroll Module. If this service type is billable to a funding source. To enter start and end times during time transaction entry, otherwise you will enter the total hours. To remit city taxes for an employee using the Payroll Module cost center s indirect city tax instead of the city tax. Refer to the Payroll Module User s Guide for details. If merging transactions to the Payroll Module and you do not want to merge any transactions for this service type to the Payroll Module. To turn off error checking for this service type during data entry. 16

17 Service Types Night Service Type or select: This is a legacy field that is no longer used. Include on ODMRDD Service Report *This field is required. If the service type should appear on the ODMRDD Services Report that can be used to key in data to the ODMRDD portal for determining a client s billing rate. 4. If you are merging time to the Payroll Module and you need to set up wage types for this service type, click the Prim (HolA, HolB, HolC, Prim OT, HolA OT, HolB OT or HolC OT) tab at the bottom of the window and enter a wage type code (or press F2 to browse for it) in each of the boxes as needed. For details on wage types refer to the Payroll Module User s Guide. Repeat this process for each of the remaining tabs as needed. Primary (Prim) is regular worked time. Primary Over Time (Prim OT) is for regular overtime worked. Holiday (Hol A, Hol B, Hol C) is for time worked on a specified holiday. You can set up your holiday schedule and let the software select the appropriate wage type code or you can override it during data entry by entering A, B or C as the second character in the Force Wage Code box. Holiday Over Time (Hol A OT, Hol B OT, Hol C OT) is for overtime worked on a specified holiday. You can set up your holiday schedule and let the software select the appropriate wage type code or you can override it during data entry by entering an X, Y or Z in the Force Wage Code box. Within each tab is a box for No Premium, Premium A, Premium B, Premium C and Premium D, which allows the service type to have premium/shift differentials associated for payroll processing. Enter the wage type that is associated with that service for that type of wage. You can have up to four premium wage types. You can enter your premium times in a schedule or you can override them during data entry by entering an A, B, C, D in the Force Wage Code box. For example, for a service called direct care, on the Prim tab in the No Premium box, you would typically enter the wage type code for regular hours. On the Hol tab in the No. 17

18 Service Types. Note Premium box you might, enter the wage type code for holiday worked. Then on the Primary OT tab in the No Premium box, you might enter the wage type code for overtime and on the Hol OT tab in the No Premium box, you might then enter the wage type code for holiday worked overtime. If you do not differentiate between holiday and holiday worked then you would enter the wage type code for holiday worked in the No Premium box on both tabs. The premium boxes are only used, if you offer a bonus premium/shift differential for employees who work specified hours. This could be for a second or third shift or possibly a weekend bonus. The Prim Formulas and Hol Formulas tabs are no longer used. 5. When finished, click Save and then click Close to exit. Exercise 1: Service Types Print a listing of your service types for your records. 18

19 Funding Sources Lesson 3: Funding Sources The funding source represents the organization you submit the bills to for the services performed for your clients in order to receive payment for those services provided. Within each funding source you can select the service types that apply to that particular funding source. For each applicable service type, you will set up the billing codes associated with the service type as defined/required by the funding source. Within the funding source, you will also set up the rejection codes and the reference information for all the entries that will be made in the General Ledger from Client Billing. The chart below gives you an overview of how funding sources, service types and bill codes interrelate. Funding Source: State Funding Source: County Service Type: Day Habilitation Service Type: Homemaker/ Personal Care Service Type: Transportation Service Type: Direct Care Bill Code: AHA Bill Code: ABC Bill Code: CHA Bill Code: CBA Bill Code: DSRV Bill Code: QRST Bill Code: DHA Bill Code: TSRQ Before you can add a new funding source, you may need to set up these items: Phone Number Descriptions (See the General Ledger Module User s Guide) Address Descriptions (See the General Ledger Module User s Guide) Service Types Balance Sheet Account Codes Income Statement Account Codes Patient Liability Accounts (See the General Ledger Module User s Guide). 19

20 Funding Sources. Contract Adjustment Accounts (See the General Ledger Module User s Guide) Facility Type Codes Providers To add a funding source: 1.

25 Funding Sources You will see the Billing Codes dialog box: 11. Type or select the information below as required. Code* Type or select: A unique, alphanumeric code for the billing code. This code will be used in look up boxes throughout the software. Description* Billing Increment Rounding Precision A meaningful description of the billing code. This description will be used in look up boxes throughout the software. Day - 24 hour billing increments Quarter Hour - 15 minute billing increments Hour - 60 minute billing increments Unit - a non-time billing unit, such as mileage Half Hour - 30 minute billing increments Minute - 1 minute billing increments Whole Increment - When rounding use whole increments. Half Increment - When rounding use half increments Quarter Increment - When rounding use quarter increments No Rounding - Use actual number entered. 25

26 Funding Sources. Rounding Method Billing Category Use Bill Rounding Type or select: Up - For partial increments, round up to the next Rounding Precision selected. For example, if the increment is hours and the precision is whole and you entered 3 hours and 2 minutes, the system would round to 4 hours. Down - For partial increments, round down to the next Rounding Precision selected. For example, if the increment is hours and the precision is whole and you entered 3 hours and 59 minutes, the system would round to 3 hours. Standard - For partial increments, round up when the partial increment is greater than or equal to half the selected increment and down when it is less than half the selected increment (to the next Rounding Precision selected). See Appendix D of the Client Billing User s Guide for details. Regular - If this bill code is for the regular service type. Reserve - If this bill code is for reserve hours/units available if the client runs out of regular hours/units. If you use reserve, you must also have a corresponding bill code for regular. To round the client s entire bill for that bill code. For example, if the billing increment is hours and the rounding precision is whole hours and you have created a bill for a month, the software will round the number of hours for the entire month instead of for the day. Use Global Rate Use Global Limit Summarize on 837 Claims If the rate is the same for this service type/bill code for all clients. Otherwise the rate will be set at the contract-level, per client. If the global limit is the same for this service type/bill code for all clients. Otherwise the limit will be set at the contract-level, per client. To summarize the claims on the 837 file so that there is only one service item (detail line) per client per bill code per month instead of per day. 26

27 Funding Sources Include Service Line Rendering Provider Single Claim Per Day Type or select: If you want to include the employee s rendering Provider ID 1 and/or Provider ID 2 in service line of the 837 electronic file, select the appropriate option: SSN/Provider 1: This option will put the employee s SSN in the 2420A NM1 09 loop of the 837 file and the provider number from Provider 1 in the 2420A REF 02 loop. SSN/Provider 2: This option will put the employee s SSN in the NM1 09 loop of the 837 file and the provider number from Provider 2 in the 2420A REF 02 loop. Provider 1/SSN: This option will put the value from the employee s Provider 1 in the 2420A NM1 09 loop of the 837 file and the employee s SSN in the 2420A REF 02 loop. Provider 2/SSN: This option will put the value from the employee s Provider 2 in the 2420A NM1 09 loop of the 837 file and the employee s SSN in the 2420A REF 02 loop. The employee s Provider ID 1 (the employee s Medicaid or National Provider Identifier) and Provider ID 2 (the employee s secondary Medicaid or National Provider Identifier) are found on the Other 2 tab of either the Employees or Employees (HR Only) dialog box. Refer to the Human Resources Module User s Guide for additional information on the Other 2 tab. If you want to create one claim per day in the 837 file for this bill code. For example, if the client received this service every day from 12/1 to 12/31, 31 claims would be included in the file. If you want to create a claim per day for every bill code for this funding source, select Single Claim Per Day check box on the 837 tab instead.. 27

28 Funding Sources. One Step Rate Adjustment Bill Limit Consumer Ratio HCPCS Type or select: If you need to create an adjustment for this bill code and you want to create the reversal of the original bill and the new bill in one step. If you use the one-step rate adjustment for every bill code for this funding source, select One Step Rate Adjustment check box on the 837 tab instead. NOTE: When you have the One Step Rate Adjustment turned on and need to truly give back units/dollars to a funding source, do NOT turn off the one step rate adjustment to create the negative. Instead, go into the contract and mark it replaced. This will allow you to create the negative (zero) bill to send to the funding source. Remember to change contract back to active after you create the negative bill. Keep in mind that this will reduce your revenue by the full dollar amount of the negative bill. If you then correct your transaction/contract to have a new dollar amount, but have not created the bill, the unbilled accrual will only capture the difference between the original bill and the new bill. You will need to make a manual journal entry for the original amount billed so your unbilled revenue is correct. We recommend that you use a reversing entry. For example, if you billed and were paid $235 for a day and create a negative bill, your revenue will be reduced by $235. If you create a transaction with a new rate of $250 (or change the rate in the contract), when you create the unbilled revenue for that day, it will only show the difference of $15. You will then need to record a manual journal entry (reversing) for the $235 until you actually create the new bill so your revenue will account for the full $250 ($235 original billed amount plus $15 increase). Bill To Limit Rollover - To bill to the regular limit and then bill any reserve if available. This is the option you should select if the Billing Category is Regular and you also have a corresponding bill code with a Billing Category of Reserve. Bill To Limit No Rollover - To bill to the regular limit only and no reserve applies and you want to perform limit checking. This is the option you should select if the Billing Category is Reserve. Bill All Units Served - To bill everything regardless of the limits set. Number of clients served together at the same time for this billing code. The Health Care Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code that must appear on the 837 electronic file format for this funding source (if required). Use a colon to separate modifiers. You can have up to three modifiers in the code, for example, T2020:U1:U2. 28

29 Funding Sources ID 1 Facility Type Code Staff Ratio Rendering Provider ID Create 837 Order Type or select: Any additional identifier that needs to appear on the bills as required by the funding source. If you want the system to create new claims if the provider on prior authorization number changes within bill dates, you need to enter <SPECIALCLAIM2> as the ID 1. The facility type s code where this service type/bill code is provided to the client for use in the 837 electronic file format. You must enter a value in order for the correct claim status type to come out. The number of employees working with clients for this billing code at the same time. If the Include Service Line Rendering Provider check box is selected, select the provider ID of the employee (found on the Other 2 tab of the Employee dialog box) that you want to include in the electronic billing format: Provider ID 1 or Provider ID 2. If you want to specify the order the billing codes appear in the electronic file, assign a numeric order to each bill code as appropriate. If you leave them all set to zero (0), then they service will appear in the electronic file in the order of the claims created. *This field is required.

If you want to create a claim per day for specific bill codes, select Single Claim Per Day check box for the bill code instead. If you have selected Summarize on 837 Claims for any bill code, you must select this option at the bill code instead of at the funding source, because you cannot have summarize on 837 claims and single claim per day turned on for the same service.. 37

38 Funding Sources. One Step Rate Adjustment Facility Code Claim Code New Type or select: If you need to create an adjustment for this funding source and you want to create the reversal of the original bill and the new bill in one step. If you want to one step rate adjustments for particular bill codes, select Single Claim Per Day check box for the bill code(s) instead. If you have selected Summarize on 837 Claims for any bill code, you must select this option at the bill code instead of at the funding source. NOTE: When you have the One Step Rate Adjustment turned on and need to truly give back units/dollars to a funding source, do NOT turn off the one step rate adjustment to create the negative. Instead, go into the contract and mark it replaced. This will allow you to create the negative (zero) bill to send to the funding source. Remember to change contract back to active after you create the negative bill. Keep in mind that this will reduce your revenue by the full dollar amount of the negative bill. If you then correct your transaction/contract to have a new dollar amount, but have not created the bill, the unbilled accrual will only capture the difference between the original bill and the new bill. You will need to make a manual journal entry for the original amount billed so your unbilled revenue is correct. We recommend that you use a reversing entry. For example, if you billed and were paid $235 for a day and create a negative bill, your revenue will be reduced by $235. If you create a transaction with a new rate of $250 (or change the rate in the contract), when you create the unbilled revenue for that day, it will only show the difference of $15. You will then need to record a manual journal entry (reversing) for the $235 until you actually create the new bill so your revenue will account for the full $250 ($235 original billed amount plus $15 increase). Refer to the 837 Companion Guide provided by your funding source for details on these codes. Claim Code Reversal Claim Code Replacement 38
