We are in the
process of migrating from our current lab system to Meditech lab and I am trying
to determine how Meditech can handle current billing situations that we now
handle in our current system. If anyone has a good way of handling the
following situations, I would like to hear from you.
1. We have a
"Miscellaneous" profile set up in our current system to handle low
volume/esoteric sendout tests that are not already defined to the system. The
member tests hold the test name, test result that comes back from the ref lab,
and all the billing information required to be sent to BAR. I have been told
that there is no comparable type profile in Meditech and that EVERY POSSIBLE
TEST that could be done must be defined ahead of time, which seems an impossible
task.
2. Some payors
require that blood products be billed against the account number that the
product was issued to, NOT the account number the orders and units were
processed under. Would like to know if there is a way to accomplish
this in Meditech.
3. For
professional billing, we currently send within the billing file, the ID of the
physician who read the test. We are required to identify the physician with any
professional billing we send to our 3rd party payors. Not sure how we can send
this in Meditech.
Thanks,
Brian
