The remit report (BAR.BCH.cpu.ansi.835.remit.report) gives us the detail we
need, but it lists all the pts on the remit.
The standard patient report (BAR.BCH.cpu.ansi.835.remit.rpt.patient) allows
us to select by remit file # & pt, but gives only summary info.
(Neither of these reports can be initialized from the standard.)

What we'd like, is something like this:
Rev Code Proc Code Svc Dates Submitted Amt Paid Amount Reason Cd Reason
Amt Reason
0300 36415 07/09/08 20.00 3.00 45 17.00
0

Has anyone built a remit report that selects by remit file# & patient with
similar info as above?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I am also looking to pull remit code information from BAR.BCH. I am
still trying to figure out the item type and txn type if anyone know
that I sure would appreciate the help.

Jackie,
There are two articles on the meditech-l web site, one with a list of known
BAR.PAT txn.type codes and one with BAR.BCH item.type codes.

If anyone can suggest additions or corrections to the articles, please
contact me. The one on BAR.BCH item.types has very few descriptions.

Here is what the data def has for these fields:

BAR.PAT.txn.type

CH=C,R,A,P,M,B,S,F,X,E,b,c,l,m,p,q,r,s,t,v,x,Q


Enter/Edit Field Technical Documentation

To save space in the file, only 1 character is used to indicate the type of
transaction: C=charge, R=receipt, A=adjustment, P=refund, M=bill marker, B=bill
print, S=statement, F=claim, X=xfer, E=edit, b=balance forward,
c=comment, l=letter, m=manual edit of a bill, p=prorate a bill,
q=prorate an account, r=reminder, s=summary of charges for client,
t=client billing xfer from pt to client, u=total pt amount xferred to client,
v=reversed bill, x=not used (aborted or deleted), Q=ins bal edit between bills


BAR.BCH.item.type

CH=CHG,RCP,ADJ,REF,BIL,BLV,XFR,m,v,p,q

No technical documentation. Seems like you could use the BAR.PAT info, except that CHG = C RCP = R etc.
