Collection Manager - Statement Setup Guide

Statement Setup

Description

Statement Setup provides a set of default options for all patient statements. These options control what
information is shown on printable statements and how to format it. For example, the practice's address, past due
messages, statement address to, page offsets, font sizes, word wrapping and more. A user can choose from an existing
Statement Setup or create a new one.

Note: Level 5 (Management) user access level is required to access and make changes to this area.

Note: Some default options can be overridden by the Collection Manager's filtering options in Advanced Mode.

Note: At least one Statement Setup must exist in order to create statements through the Collection Manager.

[Section 1 of Statement Setup Add/Edit- Statement Setup and Configuration]


Show Diagnosis Yes/No:

  • Yes - to display Diagnosis codes in the Description section of each claim line in PDF Statements.
  • No - to not display Diagnosis Codes in PDF Statements.

Statement Searching/Filtering Options - Predefined Statement filters that define a set of Search Criteria to filter Statements.

  • Count unapplied pre-payment - whether or not Unapplied Pre-payments count in calculating Statement balance.
  • Balance min, max - Filter by Statement Balance
  • Patient Last name range - Filter by patient last name
  • Days of last statement to exclude
  • Bill Code - Filter Statements by Bill Code
  • Payer Type - Filter Statements by Payer Type
  • Payer Group - Filter Statements by Payer Group
  • Payer - Filter Statements by Payer

Further explanation for "Count Unapplied Payment"

This option controls whether or not to include Unapplied Pre-payments when calculating Account Balances. Only claims with a
positive Account Balance are considered. Account Balances must also fall within the Account Balance Min/Max range (above).
Prepayments, regardless of the setting, is not subtracted from "Balance Due Now". " Balance Due Now" is calculated as the
sum of all claims that appear on the Statement.

  • Choose (Yes) to count Pre-payments when calculating Account Balances. This option will consider Unapplied Prepayments when

calculating balances to produce a statement.

Example 1: a patient has $100.00 in Unapplied Prepayments on their account, and $99.00 balance due on their account. A statement will not generate.

Example 2: a patient has $10.00 in Unapplied Pre-payments, and $99.00 balance due on their account. A statement will generate.

  • Choose (No) to not count Unapplied Prepayments when calculating Account Balances.

Example: a patient has $500.00 in Unapplied Pre-payments, and $500.00 balance due on their account. The $500.00 Unapplied Pre-payment
is ignored, and a statement will generate for the account.

Note: The best practice for handling unapplied money is for the practice to make sure that all unapplied payments, that should be applied to
services, are done before a statement run.
