Good Afternoon L, We are C/S 5.4 SR2 facility getting ready to open a Cardiac Cath Lab and are trying to find the best solution for tracking, documenting, and maintaining inventory for items, implants, and supplies used for Cardiac Caths. We want to be able to list all items that might be needed on the OR Preference Card but there is a reluctance on our Revenue Team's part to have the items list out in the chargemaster when there are multiple different items with the same cost. Our Meditech BAR specialists tells us to have a different BAR procedure number for each item, even with the same price, to be able to track utilization of individual items. Has any facility already gone through this setup process and did you build each item separately with it's own BAR procedure code, even when the price was the same? We'd appreciate any advice you could give on this subject!
