Set up a patient coverage

warning

RehabAlpha is still under active development. It is not yet HIPAA compliant and should only be used with dummy data.

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​

  1. Open the patient.
  2. Click Coverages.
  3. Click New coverage.
  4. Select the payor.
  5. Enter the coverage start date.
  6. Enter an end date if the coverage has a known end date.
  7. Add deductible, copay, coinsurance, or authorization details when needed.
  8. 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.
