Hi - Our ER Coders enter the "facility" level charge & some miscellaneous supply charges (casts, etc) via Order Entry module and perform the coding via ABS module. (To my knowledge, there is no way to enter charges via ABS) Patti Markunas, RHIT, CCS Manager, Coding Washington County Hospital Hagerstown, Maryland ----- Original Message ----- From: "Valerie A.

With this, we are considering the possibility of the Coder staff actually entering the level of service charge procedure, along with other services provided such as infusions. It would be optimal to perform this function via the ABS module, since this is where the coders perform all other coding functions. > > Are Coders at any other facilities entering charges? If so, what module are they using and do you have some type of interface between ABS and BAR to enter the charges? > > Thank you, > > > Valerie Holdener, RHIT > > Anderson Hospital > > Business/Process Analyst > > ph.
