Once charges and payments are entered, the next step is to create the claim. This may involve compiling charges, revenue codes, CPT®, HCPCS Level II, and ICD-10 codes. Information from the encounter form is used to prepare the claim, which includes patient demographics, service details, provider information, and, in some cases, notes justifying medically necessary care. This claim is then sent to third-party payers for reimbursement.
