Why do you have to manually delete the sno med code in the charges manually? We turned this functionality on and now I am being told by the VAR the only way to get the claim out the door is to delete it. So we have to have it turned on to meet the CMS requirement but then we have to manually delete it claim level to get our claim out door? Somebody please tell me there is a better way.
Thanks
You need to set up the snomed code to NOT transfer to billing. Create an order group- we named ours CQM then under insurance specific information click new and uncheck transfer to visit. We put all the snomed and LNC codes in this group.
let me know if this doesn't make sense

You leave out a lot of details. I'm an IT tech and not in billing directly, so I'm not all that familiar with it either.
We're on CPS12 and as far as I know, we don't use SNOMED codes for anything.
I built a text file that produces a snomed code on the orders everytime the provider opens an office note. This captures all of our patients seen, whether they have an E&M code or note. We did as Hilary did, built the group and unchecked transfer to billing. If you need any help feel free to email me at [email protected].

I just emailed you screen shot instructions of how to correct this. I sent them to your email of slhv@slhv... If you want it at a different email address, just send me a message at [email protected]
And to answer your questions, you may not use snowmed codes for anything, but some of the forms do - automatically. You probably use them without realizing it! =)
We are on EMR 9.8 and are having the same issue. I don't see a field for "transfer to visit" that I can uncheck. Is that only in CPS?
