Quick Reference — To see current Out-of-Network Billing Consent Status for appointments

 

This functionality is available if the No Surprises Act Consent feature has been enabled for your practice. For reference, see the User Guide — athenaOne Support for Compliance with No Surprise Billing Legislation.

 

 

On either the Eligibility and Phone worklist or the Appointment page, you can see the current Out-of-Network Billing Consent status for each appointment that has been flagged as Out-of-network rates may apply. The status will change as the appointment moves through the steps in the patient consent process.

• Missing signed patient consent form — This status appears if the appointment has a cost estimate but no signed consent form attached.
• Missing signed patient consent form / Form sent to patient on [MM/DD/YYYY at HH:MM pm] — This status appears if the appointment has a cost estimate, the consent form was sent to the patient, but no signed consent form is attached.
• Collected patient consent — This status appears if a signed consent form is attached to the appointment
