By default, the Payroll feature is set to on for all accounts. Turning this feature off will disable the ability to compile payroll data to use with your current payroll software.
By default, the Document Visit Date/Time Editing feature is turned on for all agencies. This determines whether or not users have the ability to edit the Begin/End visit Date/Time fields in the Visit Details section of locked documents (for documents that utilize the newer, enhanced format).
This setting only applies to locked documents that do not have any charges batched or billed. If charges have already been batched and/or billed, users will not be able to edit these fields (even when creating a document revision) unless the corresponding charges are reversed. Additionally, this setting only applies if the Visit Behavior is set to "Clinical Document Charge Verification" (in Reference Files | Discipline Codes) for the discipline associated witht he document, as the "Scheduling Release Process" automatically locks all Visit Details information upon release.
If this feature is turned on, specific pieces of data will flow from the last locked assessment.
This feature is automatically turned on by HEALTHCAREfirst if it was included in your contract, and cannot be edited by your agency.

This feature is automatically turned on by HEALTHCAREfirst if it was included in your contract, and cannot be edited by the agency.
This feature allows agencies to enter custom verbiage for each line of business (123 character limit, to avoid truncation), which will display in each page footer of the Patient Statements report.
