Create Superbill

Updated: 06/09/2023|Views: 24679

The Clinical Superbill enables you to capture a comprehensive list of charges for the exam, procedures, supplies, and other goods and services provided during the patient's visit, all without leaving the clinical note.

Creating a Superbill can be done in stages and by more than one person. It starts with clicking the Superbill button at the bottom of the note and ends with submitting the bill. Superbills can be edited, but not deleted. Access the superbill as often as needed to make changes until the charges are finalized and submitted for billing.

Access Notes

  1. Enter the first 2–3 letters of the patient's name or date of birth (mm/dd/yyyy) in the top navigation bar search box.
  2. Click to select the patient from the auto-populated results. The patient's Facesheet page opens.
  3. Click Notes. The Notes page opens.
  4. Click Open next to an existing note or create a new note.

    2. Browse: Click to open the ICD Browser pop-up window and choose from saved coding favorites, the patient's diagnosis codes, or perform a general search.
    3. Rank: Click and drag the bar to re-order the Diagnosis Codes list, if necessary.
