Payer Scenarios Setup
Use Payer Scenarios to categorize patient encounters according to their billing situation (e.g. Medicare, Commercial, Workers’ Compensation, etc). Kareo adds a standard list of payer scenarios to all customer databases, however, you can customize the list according to the workflow and reporting needs of your organization.
There are a few key benefits from Payer Scenarios. First, they provide your users with a simple categorization scheme for billing situations. Second, you can filter and group various reports by payer scenario. Third, you can configure specific payer scenarios as “unpayable”, which means any charges associated with the payer scenario are not billed to patients. And finally, you can disable sending patient statements for charges associated with specific payer scenarios.
