What it is

Panel-wise rate cards, referral validity checks, permission letters filed against admissions, and panel billing that reconciles with the ledger. The Schemes tab keeps your scheme list (a starter list of names and states, no rates), every eligibility check including the ones that failed or could not be made, each bill’s pre-authorisation from request to approval or refusal with the scheme’s reason, and one claims list across every scheme with the reason a claim came back with.

How it works

  1. Register the empanelmentPanels & rates takes the scheme — CGHS, ECHS, ESI or a state scheme — the panel name, the empanelment number and the date it runs from; the same empanelment number twice on one scheme is refused.
  2. Put the panel’s own rates on itA billing rule is a procedure, the rate that panel agreed and whether it wants prior permission; one panel holds one rule per procedure.
  3. Check the cardCard checks finds the patient, then takes a currently valid panel, the card or service number and general, semi-private or private; a panel that works off a referral cannot be verified without the referral document reference.
  4. Raise the bill and read the gapRaise a panel bill against a verified card and a rule with what was claimed; the Reconciliation table shows the panel rate beside the claimed amount, the gap in rupees and per cent, and a basis line naming the rule and the entitlement the comparison rests on — all computed on read.
  5. Permission before the claimWhere the panel wanted prior permission, Link claim does not appear until Record approval has put the reference on the bill; Portal ref records what the panel portal gave back, and nothing is submitted from this screen.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not bill a panel rate without the referral document attached.
