Procedure Codes: Procedure Codes

Comprehensive procedure codes are included with QSIDental Web. You may modify this list to accommodate the needs of the practice. Each code can have an associated draw type to allow the treatment to show visually on the chart. You can also add new codes for tracking and record keeping.

To access the Procedure Code Setup screen, select Procedure Codes > Procedure Codes from the Setup menu.

Available codes are listed on the left side of the Procedure Code Setup screen. Using the parameters in the upper-left corner of the screen, you can search for codes by entering search text and selecting which field to search in the Search On dropdown. You may also narrow your search by ADA category and service type. Additionally, you can create a report of all standard and custom codes, or add, edit and delete codes.

To see the details of a specific procedure code, select the code from the list on the left. The details of each procedure code are organized into the four following tabs:

• General: Descriptive details about the code, including name, description and draw type, as well as other settings such as whether or not the procedure is taxable or can be completed by a dental therapist or advanced dental therapist.
• Clinical, Smart-Code Info: Details of connections between the procedure code and the oral cavity, such as tooth numbers and surfaces. Smart codes help reduce errors by validating the selected code compared to the selected teeth and surfaces.
• Fee Schedules: List of the fees for the specific procedure for each fee schedule in which the procedure is included.
• Narrative: Standard details that accompany the NEA attachment for a specific code.
