VistA Patch Display Page: 1
=============================================================================
Run Date: APR 09, 2019 Designation: IB*2*646 TEST v1
Package : INTEGRATED BILLING Priority : MANDATORY
Version : 2 Status : UNDER DEVELOPMENT
=============================================================================
Subject: COMMUNITY CARE URGENT CARE
Category: ROUTINE
ENHANCEMENT
Description:
===========
The Chief Business Office (CBO) is requesting system enhancements to
the Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture
(VistA) Integrated Billing (IB), Accounts Receivable (AR), and Fee
Basis (FB) software modules that would allow segregating all billing
and collection activities for Non-Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
Care Third Party Insurance carriers' reimbursement.
The goal of this enhancement is to increase timeliness and collections
of billable Non-Veterans Affairs (VA) care services. Enhancements to
existing VistA IB, AR and Fee software applications would allow for
increased efficiency in workflow processes leading to best practices
that would ultimately be reflected in improved customer service to our
Veteran population.
In order to meet this goal, this patch:
1. Allow Eligibility Priority Groups 1-5 to be billed the new
Community Care (CC) Urgent Care Copay only if the designated CC Urgent
Care Action Type is used.
2. Re-activate the DG FEE SERVICE (OUT) NEW Action Type (File
350.1) to allow for the billing of CC Urgent Care Copays
