Miscellaneous Charge Subgroups

Use the Miscellaneous Charge Subgroup tool to post a miscellaneous charge to any subgroup of patients or responsible parties.

  1. Preview Accounts to Charge (Optional.) - Before using the Miscellaneous Charge Subgroup Entry tool, we recommend that you review the list of accounts that will receive the charge with a Subgroup List.  Then, make any necessary corrections to your accounts is needed.

    The list generated by the Subgroup List tool may be somewhat different from the list generated by the Miscellaneous Charge Subgroup Entry tool, even if you use identical subgroup criteria for both lists. This is because the Miscellaneous Charge Subgroup Entry tool imposes an additional restriction that is not available for the Subgroup List: In addition to satisfying the subgroup criteria you select, the Miscellaneous Charge Subgroup Entry tool requires that the responsible party have a contract with a phase that matches the patient’s current phase.  In contrast, the Subgroup List feature include a responsible party that satisfies your subgroup criteria, regardless of whether the party has a contract for the patient's current phase.

  2. Open Miscellaneous Charge Subgroup Entry WindowClick to Open ViewPoint main menu > Tools & Utilities > Misc. Charge Subgroup Entry.

  3. Select the SubgroupClick to Open Choose an existing subgroup to use, or create a new subgroup for this batch of charges. See "Create & Manage Subgroups" for details. Then, click Ok to continue.

  4. Charge DetailsClick to Open Enter the date, miscellaneous charge description, and amount to charge each account included in your subgroup.

  5. Post the Charges - Click Post to complete the process. The miscellaneous charge is immediately applied to each responsible party that satisfies your selected subgroup and has contract with a phase that matches the patient’s current phase. The charges appear individually on your Transaction Report. If you changed the transaction date, the charge will not be considered "due" or "late" until that time.
