Receipt Management Report

Receipt Management Report


Receipt Management

The Receipt Management Report is most commonly run by Post Date which will tie in to the Month End Reports.

  • If run by a Received Date, the Report shows all money received for the Date Range chosen regardless of the Post Date.
  • Use the Received Date to balance your daily receipts.
  • The Report can be run by Post DateReceived Date, or Reference Batch.


Report Usage

The Receipt Management Report can be used to:

  • Balance Daily Patient and Insurance Receipts run by Received Date.
  • Bank deposits against the Receipts entered into the System. (Cash and Checks collected).
  • Patient and Insurance Credit Card Receipts.
  • Electronic Fund Transfers (EFTs).

  • Receipts versus Payments that have been applied (posted) to an Encounter.

  • Audit Users who added or modified the Receipts.
  • Run by a specific ERA number, Reference (Check/EFT) Number, Reference Batch number, or User.


Total By

Each Total By option selected will add that breakdown of Receipts to the report.

Options: Use the checkboxes to add the following to the report output.

  • Receipt (Default), Facility, Facility Reporting Group, Billing, Rendering, Referring, and Insurance Reporting Group.
  • The Totals will be broken down by the following:
  • Payments applied to Encounters for that Facility/Provider
  • Escrow on Receipts where the Facility/Provider has been identified on the applicable Reference Batch
  • Unidentified Escrow: the Facility/Provider has not been identified on the applicable Reference Batch


System Delivered Reports

Two Receipt Management Reports are System delivered in the Saved Report Filters panel.

  • Patient Escrow
  • Insurance Escrow


Category & Method of Payment

  • Patient, Insurance, and Invoice Payments by Method of Payment:
  • Cash
  • Check
  • EFT
  • Card
  • Refunds by:
  • Patient
  • Insurance

On the summation page, Escrow is the difference between the Received amounts (Receipts) and the Payments posted from those Receipts.

  • Often, a Copay will stay in Escrow for a short period until a Charge is created to apply the Copay against.


Disbursed Receipts

The Receipt is in the system, but the money is not posted and does not impact the A/R. You can use this feature to handle common situations, such as:

  • Money is received (typically in an ERA) into the system but belongs in the previous billing system.
  • As a way to receive and enter money without posting Payments, for example, a Capitation Payment. However, if you want to post Capitation Payments to a Capitation account, seCapitation, Bonus, and Incentive Posting.
  • For error management after Period Close.

If the money is being posted into a different system, run this report with the filter to Exclude for Disbursed.  Since the money is being posted into the other system, it should be reported from that system. However, Disbursements are not included in the Receipts' Grand Total. They are listed but subtracted from the Grand Total.

If the money is not being posted elsewhere, then a Receipt Management Report can be used to balance to a bank deposit. Choose Include for Disbursed. The Report can be run for Disbursed Only as well.
