How does the system handle deductible and copays due from the patient?
The system uses three methods to identify the correct amount of patient responsibility: 1. Capture the actual deductible or copay reported by the payor from the HIPAA 835 electronic payments. 2. Compare calculated contractual allowances to paid contractual allowances to mathematically determine the correct amount. 3. Use a Master File table in Harvest where known Deductibles and Copays can be referenced.
