We have the rejection batch report for each journal scheduled to spool and print to a designated printer in the responsible department. It's the department head's responsibility to fix (or assign someone to fix) all rejected transactions. For various reasons, sometimes the scheduled report doesn't print, so in our policy we also include that it's the department head's responsibility to check spool files and/or the rejection batch routine if a report isn't printed. I also report on rejected transactions and late charges in our monthly Revenue Management Task Force meeting. I have also met with different clinical areas to evaluate their rejections and to figure out how to prevent them in the future. As a result of these processes, our rejection batches have gone down to an all-time low and the ones we do have are fixed or deleted (correctly!) within 24 hours, in most cases. I do have one department (a clinic) that hasn't addressed this at all. I have to meet with them this week to discuss this.

We wait for them to make corrections and the delete offsetting txns or they give us information to edit the rejections ourselves. I wrote a set of NPR reports to isolate the depts and also to provide additional patient registration information that the standard rejected txns list does not provide. Shirley Hammack I.T.
