Batch Insurance Payment

In the Manage Module, click Batch Ins.

This window is for entering a large batch of claims on a single EOB. For a smaller batch or single claim, see Finalize Insurance Payment

Large batch insurance payment entry is useful when there are many claims on a single EOB or when multiple users enter payments at the same time. There are two different ways to enter large batch payments.

Supplemental payment amounts can only be received in the Account Module. See Supplemental Insurance Payments. Once received, it can be attached to a batch payment.

Questions & Answers

What if I cannot enter (receive) all of the claims that make up my bulk check/payments and I need to leave for the day?

Do not finalize the payment until you finish receiving all the claims. This way all claim payments will have the same payment date.

We have multiple people entering payments. How can we make sure the payments balance?

Assign payment groups to each payment. This will group payments together. Then run the Daily Payments Report by payment group.
