[MEDITECH-L] Balancing BAR to GL

[Amber A. Curtis]

Hello,

   Before I reinvent the wheel, is there anyone out there that has written an NPR, or has a routine to balance the daily BAR day-end data to what gets posted in GL?

  In our previous system we had procedures within the software that would flag errors when something coming from A/R did not post to GL. It appears that in Meditech, they leave it up to you to discover the problem .. Although you have the "Billing/AR Daily Operations Summary" there doesn't seem to be a routine to compare what actually got posted to GL and what was sent from BAR.

 

Thanks,

There is one routine that we use that picks up at least part of the exceptions.  Under batches there is a routine called master logs.  We print master log by G/L number for the last valid G/L account ( i.e. ours is 01.9987.087) through the END.  This shows the "bad" accounts that B/AR tried to generate..  We send this report daily to the accounting department.    This involves patients where the "account type" and "serivce" generate an invalid G/L code.
