We have this process in place, but it is not haphazard at all. We auto print a report to the individual responsible for that aspect of the provider dictionary. What I mean by that is, there is a staff person in B/AR assigned to this part of provider dictionary entries. Since these entries have nothing to do with credentialing and everything to do with billing, the billing staff take an active role in getting that information, entering it into the provider dictionary and correcting the acct in ADM. We have not experienced any issues with the process up to this point anyway. Please call if you have questions.

Thanks! Thanks, Liz _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Julie Carlson Sent: Friday, May 18, 2007 4:29 PM To: Meditech-L (E-mail) Subject: [MEDITECH-L] RE: PROVIDER NOT IN MIS PROVIDER DICTIONARY Hello L-list, We frequently have patients who present to Admitting to register for outpatient Labs or Imaging studies ordered by a physician or provider who has not yet been entered into our MIS Provider dictionary. For the longest time we have used a generic "OTHER" as the ordering physician (in order to get the patient registered and taken care of quickly), with research and Provider dictionary entries made by our Medical Staff Office after the fact, and sometimes rather 'haphazardly' at that. Because of the late entries, RAD reports often do not get sent to the ordering provider (but get 'sent' somehow to Dr Other), and with the new requirement for NPI numbers and claims potentially rejecting for no NPI, among other things, we know we need to find a solution to this situation. Is this situation experienced by any of you? If so, how does your process work? I'd welcome any suggestions, comments, or ideas.....by the way, we are Magic 5.5 SR3.
