Reopen Submitted Encounters

Users with the Scheduling Admin security role can reopen a submitted session so that the practitioner can make edits and resubmit it.

  1. Go to the encounter service that needs to be reopened.
  2. Change the status from 'Submitted' to 'Ready to Submit.' The practitioner will now be able to make edits to the session in Note.
    • If the related encounter service payroll item is not already in a closed payroll period, it will be deactivated.
    • If the related charge item is not at status 'Claim Line Created', it will become 'Awaiting Submission.'
    • If the related charge item is already at status 'Claim Line Created', it will become 'Awaiting Resubmission.'
  3. When the practitioner resubmits the session in Note, the session will once again be locked for edit, a new encounter service payroll item will be created, and the Awaiting Submission charge item will become New. (Awaiting Resubmission charge items wil stay as Awaiting Resubmission until a biller reviews the edits made to the session and determines if the claim needs to be modified.
