Creating Schedules 

Schedules define what rates are applied during the billing process. For example, if the resident is active in the facility they use the Standard schedule. If they are out on hospital or therapeutic leave and they are billed a different rate, you use the appropriate schedule. 

Schedules are mapped to the primary room and board payers and are tied to the Schedule/Status by Payer and the Payer Rules and Rate Schedules. 

Note

If you make changes or additions to Schedules, it is important to review the Schedule/Status by Payer to ensure all necessary schedules are associated to the Payers. 

  1. Do one of the following: 

    • Single facility: Admin > Setup > Billing Setup > Schedules 

    • Multi-facilities: Management Console > Standards > Financial Management > Schedules. 

  5. If you are a multi-facility, you must activate the Schedules for each applicable facility.

    • If the schedule is scoped corporately, select the facilities link and select the facilities to activate the schedule and click Save.

    • If the schedule is scoped to Line of Business/State or to Facility, activate the schedule at the facility level.
