To get paid:
1 pull the chart note from the chart (if you even have enough staff to actually chart). Otherwise find the order in whatever stack it is sitting in.
2 go to CISI and look up the patient. Enter a note in the com log that begins with: "chart note"...then continue to explain why those notes work. You MUST make it so simple a 1st grader can understand it. Not kidding.
3 In the same patients account. Go to selective printing. Look for chart note cover letter. Or something like that.
4 after you print that letter. Fax it along with the notes to YOUR cdr fax. From there it will take about two days to show up accepted or rejected.
5 Keep an eye on the rejected ones. Remember that 1st grader comment? Go back and circle areas of the notes that will make them pass audit.
6 if its rejected after 1st grader proofing it. Youre SOL even though Lincare is gettting paid.
7 if a chart note is rejected prior to you getting the CMN back. Refuse to help getting it signed.
That is all.
