Sales Tax
On the Post Charge screen, select Self Pay from the Insurance dropdown list.
Select MISC from the Dx1 lookup.
Enter or look up the CPT®.
Choose Billable Party. The CPT can be set up in the Procedure Code Library to default to Patient Only if CPT will never be sent to Insurance. It can be overridden on the Post Charge screen.
If the System Setting for TAXABLECHGLN is set to Yes, the Tax field will be available, and if the CPT is set up correctly in the Procedure Codes Library for adding Taxes, Yes will default in the Tax field. This field can be overridden manually.
Tab through the fields until the Charge appears in the window. The tax is not calculated until the charge is saved, therefore, you will not see the Tax line item on this screen before saving.
To post the Payment at this time, click Post Copay. Make sure the Copay amount is zero and the Apply This Amount as Patient Payment field is completed. If not posting the Payment, skip to Step 8.
Click Save [F2].
Click Save & Continue on the Self Pay Validation Warning pop-up.
Tax is calculated using the percentage setup on the Tax CPT code and is added when the charge is saved.
