Add patient coverages
Coverage records describe who may be responsible for paying for a patient's therapy services during a specific time period.
Before you start
Confirm that the payor already exists in your organization's payor list. If it does not, add the payor first.
Add a coverage
- Open the patient.
- Click Coverages.
- Click New coverage.
- Select the payor.
- Enter the coverage start date.
- Enter an end date if the coverage has a known end date.
- Add deductible, copay, coinsurance, or authorization details when needed.
- Save the coverage.
Why coverage dates matter
Coverage dates help RehabAlpha decide which policy period applies to a charge. This matters when benefits, deductibles, copays, or authorization limits change over time.
