Solution:

There are instances where a bill code is linked to visits, then the bill code was disabled but a replacement bill code was not added to the service code prior to claim generation. This results in mismatched units.

The steps below will help you find the bill code and resolve this issue:

  • Navigate to Accounting > Accounting Settings > Bill Codes.
  • Change status filter to 'Disabled'.

  • Filter for this bill code, you should see this bill code is listed in the Disabled listing.
      • If this bill code is not disabled, please create a Zendesk ticket for our support agents to investigate.
      • If this bill code is disabled, please continue with the steps below.
  • You will need to change the code name and description of the bill code to put DNU in front of the description (this is to allow you to easily identify if this bill code is attached to the service code and visit).

  • From there, navigate to Service Codes and search for the service code linked to the visit.
  • Use the drop-down arrow next to the Edit button and choose 'Edit billing detail'.

  • You should see this bill code with DNU as the precursor, this bill code needs to be replaced with the correct enabled bill code by clicking on the Edit button for that payor in the service code and change the bill code to the correct one.
