Fee schedules describe the fees associated with different procedures performed by the practice. Different fee schedules may be created and assigned to different carriers, different providers and different offices. Fee schedule setup is a two stage process:
Like the other setup tools in QSIDental Web, the Fee Schedule setup tools are found under the Setup menu.
There are two choices available:
The current list of fee schedules is displayed in the Fee Schedule Setup window and can be viewed either by schedule or code using the tabs. A few samples are provided, including a PPO, an HMO/Managed Care and the Office Default.
As is typical of QSIDental Web setup, schedules can be edited, deleted or added from this window. Additionally, all of the fees in the selected schedule may be increased or decreased by a particular percent at once using the Increase by or Decrease by section. This tool makes it easy to create a discount fee schedule for discount plans. To keep fees as a whole dollar amount, click the Round Up checkbox.
For the practice’s first fee schedule edit the sample Office Default UCR.
