Explosion Codes Setup

Explosion Codes are an efficient way of linking commonly combined procedures; for example, a new patient visit explosion code might include an exam and x-rays. The user can select a single code that then explodes into multiple procedure codes, which is especially useful when the user does not have permissions to the enhanced tooth chart.

The Explosion Code setup window displays the practice’s current explosion codes with their names and linked procedures.

The Explosion Codes can be edited and new ones created. Click the Edit button to adjust a current code. Click the Add New Code button to create a new code. For a new explosion code, provide a name and description which will make the code easy to identify.

Build the code by selecting from the list of procedures on the left and clicking the Add button to move the code to the right side.
