A new settings screen, Settings > Insurance, is now accessible to any user with Account Manager Security Level.
On this new settings screen, users can view and edit details for Insurance Plans linked to the account. (Adding insurance plans must still be done through the Add button in Billing and go through the validation process by the support team.)
Using the filter options, you can search for Insurance Plans by Insurance Plan Type and you can include or exclude Workers’ Compensation plans. You can sort the list of plans by Insurance Plan Name or by ZIP Code.
Leaving Insurance Type set to “-- Select All --” will return a list of all plans, regardless of type.
Once the filters are set as desired, click the Show Insurance Plans button to generate the list.
After “Show Insurance Plans” is clicked, the system will return the list of plans linked to the account.
Plans configured to be sent to the clearinghouse will have an entry in the Payer ID column. (Plans without a Payer ID will need to be printed and claims using these plans will go to the Pending Payer Paper Claim bucket in Billing once the Release button is clicked on Claim-Final.)
Use the links on the bottom of the grid to advance forwards or backwards in the list.
Clicking the Edit link in the first column enables you to change the plan details for the selected plan.
Once you have made the desired changes, press the Update link to save the new values. Pressing the Cancel link returns you to the list without saving the changes.
Warning - adding, changing, or removing the Payer ID will affect how claims are routed to the clearinghouse.
