Step-by-step instruction...

  • Navigate to the patients record

  • Click on their NHS tab along the top of their record

  • Make sure you are on the claims tab in the top left

  • From here you can monitor the individuals claim status

  • And keep track of any prior approval status' for the patient

  • You can also use the TP icon to view the treatment on the chart screen

    • From the Treatment plan, you can make changes if required and resubmit the claim

The key to any claim is its Status. Once a claim has been submitted, it will eventually be marked as Received.

If there are any issues with the claim, it will likely be returned as Invalid. Invalid claims can then be resubmitted with amendments.

Once a claim has been paid on a schedule, the claim status will change to Complete.
