Individual Encounter Tabs
Each tab is detailed below.
Payment Overview
The Payment Overview tab features a summary of the claim and whether it has been balanced or not.
It is organized both ‘per payer,’ just below the summary, and also ‘per procedure.’ By expanding these sections, you can dig into the reasons for its status, as shown in this example.

From the Submissions tab, you can expand a submission to view more details. You can also click on the ‘x rules applied’ button to view which rules were applied to this claim.
You can also click ‘View’ on the right-hand side of a submission to see the original paperwork for the claim.
Patient
This tab displays all touch points (texts or emails) between your practice and the patient regarding PR collection, as well as their results.
You can also use this feature to assess the effectiveness of PR collection through these methods for a given patient, and adjust PR collection strategy accordingly to ensure your practice gets paid.
Activity Log
Claim Timeline
The Claim Timeline displays all events that have occurred in relation to that claim, including payment updates. This is a particularly useful visualization tool when there is some question about a claim’s status, or how much time elapsed between two events.
You can Shift+click on an event’s expansion icon to expand or collapse the details of all events listed.
PR Timeline
The PR Timeline chronologically displays every event related to PR and Payments for a particular Date of Service (DoS). It functions as a snapshot of PR for a given DoS, at any point in time. You can view when the appointment took place, when claims were submitted, all the way through to when balances were updated and payment was fully applied.
See this guide for full details on the PR Timeline.
There are toggles for showing or hiding credits transactions as well as other hidden events. Some events are hidden due to their relatively inconsequential nature. For example, if a partial refund is required, then a full refund may be issued and then credits will be used to make up the difference. This event will exist, but it will be hidden from the PR Timeline to make the data more intuitive and readable.
Import History
This is a handy tab for tracking all updates made to a claim. You can view when the update was made, which fields were changed, and who made the changes.
Click ‘View’ for more details on a given update.
Additionally, you can check the boxes on two or more rows, then click ‘Compare’ to compare all selected updates.
