FAQs

  • PHI stands for Protected Health Information

    ​The HIPAA Privacy Rule provides federal protections for personal health information held by covered entities and gives patients an array of rights with respect to that information. At the same time, the Privacy Rule is balanced so that it permits the disclosure of personal health information needed for patient care and other important purposes.

  • The Billing encounter or Ticket numbers are standardized and unique for each provider in a practice group.

    Example of Ticket Numbers:

    455 - 105
    455 - 106
    455 - 107

    The first set of numbers represent the unique physician number (i.e. 455)

    The last set of numbers represent the unique ticket number (i.e. 105)

    (Note: You may start at any ticket number and subsequent submissions will be set in sequential order.)

    It is important to note that ticket numbers will not be assigned to a particular ticket until it is submitted. You can think of it as a barcode label thats placed on a product at the end of a factory line. Tickets are not required to be sent in a particular order (i.e. date of service) as all the information pertaining to that encounter will be migrated together with that unique ticket number.
