We are C/S 5.4 sr2. We enter therapy charges on inpatients via PCS. We have one intervention for PT, and OT and Speech. Each query prepresents a different billing number. When they document, the also pull up the PT Charge Intervention for example and either "document" a response query for non time based charges or a number query for time based charges (15 minute units). Works wonderfully!!!!
Outpatients is a different story. We still use ITS, because we are unable to attached billing modifiers to indicate mutually exclusive charges in PCS. In fact, a couple of years ago, when we tried to impliment PCS charging for outpatient therapy, Meditech didn't even know what a billing modifier was. Took us a couple of tasks, and a conference call for them to respond to our inquiry intelligently. We submitted an enhancement request. Don't know where that is now. If this ever goes through, we will switch to PCS charges asap. The fact that the charges are in your face when documenting and are in the EMR with the documentation, which is suppose to justify the charges is a no brainer.
