Statement/Invoice Profiles must be set up before Statements or Invoices can be batched.

• If the Statement Profile is selected as the Default, it will be attached to new Patients automatically.
• Other Statement/Invoice Profiles can be created to be used for attachment in the Patient Demographics and on the Modify Encounter screen.

• If a Statement Profile is selected in the Patient Demographics or on the Modify Encounter screen, the Default Profile is overridden.

Statement/Invoice Setup Workflow

1. Set up Statement/Invoice Profiles.
2. Assign the Statement/Invoice Profiles to Patients/Encounters.
3. Create a Test Batch for Statements and Invoices (separately if using both).
4. Upload to Statement Department.
5. Proofs will be sent back to you for both (if using both).
6. Approve Proof(s).
7. Send separate Proofs to the Statement Department for Statements and/or Invoices.
8. Approve the Proofs.

Set Up a Statement/Invoice Profile

• Admin on the Left Side Menu > Statement Profiles

• Select Add.

Statement Info Panel

1. Description: This field is for internal use (not patient facing).
2. One Statement Per: Select Guarantor or Patient. 

• This setting determines Patient billing or Family billing and dictates which Account Number appears on the Statement.

• Guarantor: One statement per Guarantor (Family billing)

• Uses the Guarantor ID as the Account Number on the Statement.

• Patient: One statement per Patient (Patient billing)

• Uses the Patient ID as the Account Number on the Statement.

3. Default: Select this option to make this Statement Profile the default selection for all new Patients.
4. Default Invoice: Choose this as the Default if this Statement Profile is for billable Employers. When an Employer is setup in the Library, the Statement field will default to this Profile. The System will create automatically an Invoice instead of a Statement.
5. Account Type Identifier: When this option is selected, the statement account number is prefixed with the letter "P" or "G". (This setting does not apply to locally printed Statements or to Invoices.)

• P: For Patient Billing Statements - the account number is the Patient account number.
• G: For Family Billing Statements (and all custom statement types) - the account number is the Guarantor account number.

6. Number of Statements/Invoices that should display transaction detail:

• To limit the number of Statement pages sent, choose a low number, such as 1 or 2.

• The Statements exceeding this setting will display a Balance Forward Line instead of the Transaction Details from previous Statements.
• Use System Setting: EXCLBALFW to exclude Balance Forward in the Statement Total.

• For Transaction details to appear on every Statement for Balances Due, select All.
  

• Select 1 for Invoice Billing.
  
• If Number of Invoices to Display Transaction Details is set to 1, and If the Max Dunning Count is set to more than 1, the Balance Forward lines are grouped into a line for each previous Invoice with a Balance Due.
  
• Displays the Invoice ID# with the Charge and Payment Amounts as the Product Description on the Balance Forward line(s).
  

• Logic of Totals on Invoice

  • On the Invoice Profile, set the Number of Statements that should display transaction detail to 1.
  • Invoice Balance Logic: Total Balance Forward + Current Charges - Credit on Account = Total Due

7. Hold Statements: Select this option if this Statement Profile will be used to Hold (Prevent) a balance from billing on a statement.

• A Statement Profile can be assigned at the Patient/Encounter/Provider levels. Balances can be Held at these levels by assigning a Statement Profile with the Hold Statements option selected.

8. Cycle Days: This determines the number of days between Statements sent to a Guarantor with this Profile, and allows you to generate Statements daily without the Guarantor receiving two Statements in the same month.
9. POPS Link: *This is a Premium Add-On feature. A link or QR Code can be added to the paper Statements that directs the Guarantor to a website to pay on the account.

• None
• Link
• QR Code
• Link and QR Code

10. POPS Group: Select the Group to provide a POPS/QuickPay link on the paper Statement with the option chosen on the PatientOps Link field.

Payment Rules Panel

• Amount: This applies to auto-posting patient payments. Enter the minimum acceptable payment amount or percentage of outstanding balance. If the patient payment is auto-posted and meets the Payment Rules, the Dunning Message Level will auto-reset to what it was prior to the statement being sent. This field can be left blank.
• Dunning Reset: When a payment is posted that satisfies the Payment Rules (but does not settle the entire balance)

• Adjustment Code: Transaction Code to use for the discount.

• Dunning Message Count: Represents the current Dunning Level. This determines the dunning message printed on the Statements, and drives the letters and Pre-Collections processes.
