Pending Claims

Pending Claims Overview


The new and improved Pending Claims page provides a centralized location for managing all Medicare and Managed Care claims that have outstanding balances. It streamlines operations by consolidating multiple functionalities and optimizes ease of use by gathering all claims with a remaining balance in to a ‘ready to work’ location.

Benefits of Pending Claims


  • The Pending Claims window establishes a seamless workflow by enabling users to document check details, post payments, and make adjustments in one place.
  • It is essentially a workable Account Receivable window with an enhanced user experience.
  • In contrast to the previous Pending Claims window, the new page eliminates restrictions that occur when handling multiple Payer Types.

Accessing Pending Claims


The Pending Claims page is only accessible to users with the Access Billing Center permission.

 

 

To access the Pending Claims page, navigate to the Billing tab and select Pending Claims from the drop-down menu.
