This is a prime example where the Meditech L stands with its strengths. I'd have no idea where I would find it on a topic driven website. Probably a few other instances where this type of logic could be used in Billing.

The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Marie, The easiest way to pull this off would be create a date type query for "orig admit date" and pull the response into the admit date field on your claims. You could create a claim check that would fail if the query was not answered.

The claims are billed on an interim basis, but some of the patients have been residents for 4+ years. We have accounts with 50+ interim bills & many of the accounts are a mess. We are aware of the C/S LTC module, but this is not an option financially. We considered discharging the accounts at the end of each year to reduce the number of bills on each account, but Medicare requires the admit date to be the date the patient was originally admitted (not the beginning of the year). There is also the issue of Medicaid reimbursement that changes each month. Any thoughts that you may have are welcome. Marie E.
