We have been using the procedures export task to send CPT code orders from CEMR to the CPS billing system. Now for MU purposes we need to put in orders for SNOMED codes. However, we do not want SNOMED codes to be exported to CPS.
Since these codes are entered via a button, they can go in as either tests or services. Currently, all services (which would be the CPT codes) are sent to CPS. If we enter them as tests, they won't go to CPS, but they'll go in as "In Process" rather than "Completed" and someone will have to deal with them. Is there a way to filter out certain orders from being automatically exported? If not, it would appear that our options are A) put them in as tests and have someone manually complete them, or B) send them to a different interface engine and filter them out there.
Are there other options?

I think I understand, you need to enter it in orders for MU but don't want it transferring to billing. I also am thinking for MU they need to be service orders- but not 100% sure. It is very easy. In admin>codes>charts>codes and categories>services we created a category CQM and added all the snomed codes for CQM measures. once you create the category you can define insurance specific information. click change then click new by insurance specific information- check mark the box next to default insurance information for category and make sure transfer to visit is not checked. Also make sure disposition is set to complete. Since it sounds like you may have some of the set up already done, this can also be done on the individual code level. Just click on the code, then new next to insurance specific information change and do the same as above.
Hope this is what you were looking for

At the code level, on the Insurance-specific order information window, make sure the 'Transfer to visit' check box is unchecked.
If you don't have an insurance loaded, you can load it with just default insurance carrier.
I have attached a document with a screen print just in case this doesn't make any sense.

Thank you to both of you for your help--that sounds like exactly the method I need. However, it looks like there is a difference between CEMR and the EMR module of CPS. I don't have the "Transfer to Visit" checkbox ( see attached: no checkbox) unless there is something else that needs to be done to turn it on.

CPS & EMR have different functionalities in this regard. Look for the CQR webinars on the GE website, as they discussed different billing workflows, with screenshots. As another approach, I've just started playing with using Datalink as it allows you to choose only specific Service Orders Categories for export.
