RE: late charges

From:"Sebree Linda A."

The hospital would like us to re-accession these types of cases so we can bill for them but we don't do that because people won't know to look for a different case number for the same tissue on a particular patient.  So...we use the original case number and eat the cost of the test.

Subject: late charges


can someone tell me how they handle say for instance an er,pr immuno that 
was not ordered at the time the tissue went through the lab, and now the 
dr's want it done.  Is is charged on the same case number and billed on that 
or is it given a new number and billed on that.  say the case is a few 
months old.  here at our hosp. they tell us we can not bill an older case 
number?  thanks for the info,
anita dudley
