Chart Item Flags

Chart Item Flags

With Chart Item documents flags are used in addition to a status to control work flow.

Flag
Description
Deleted
Deleted items only show up when specifically searched for on the Chart Item report, will not result in billing, and will result in any associated Claim Item being voided.
Rejected
The rejected flag is only set by the system, and once set the status can not be changed until the problem is resolved and the rejected flag is unset.
Forced
The forced flag is only set by a clerk or administrator, and forces items to be immune from rejection for certain errors like overlapping other encounters.
Overlap
The overlap flag is only set or unset by the system when an item overlaps another item. All overlapping items are flagged as overlapping. In other words, if an encounter overlaps another encounter, both encounters are flagged as overlapping. Overlapping encounters can be found by searching for them specifically on the Chart Item report.
NoBill
The NoBill flag is either set by the system for non-billable services or by users on demand. Items with the NoBill flag set will not result in billing, and will result in any associated Claim Item being voided.
Billed
The billed flag is set by the system when an item is billed.
Hold
The hold flag can only be set by a clerk, and prevents the item from being approved. The intent is to set this flag, the status back to draft, and a comment is added (which shows up in the item's history). Before approving the item the clerk can verify the problem has been resolved first and unset the flag before approving.
Signed
The signed flagged is set automatically when a user signs a Chart Item. Once an item has been signed it may not be edited, which means that the status can never be changed to anything less than Signed.
Version
When the status of a signed chart item is set to Draft, a copy is made and the original is flagged as Deleted. The copy is set to Draft and flagged with this flag to indicate that the document has been revised.
OldDraft
