How to Create a Nonbillable Appointment for Provider Not Linked to a Patient
This knowledge article outlines the steps to create a nonbillable appointment for a provider for internal activities, such as training, without linking it to a specific patient record.
Steps to Add a Nonbillable Appointment Without Linking It to a Patient
- Navigate to Scheduler: Go to the main Scheduler section.
- Select Provider: Select the Provider option, and then choose the specific provider for whom you are scheduling the appointment.
- Initiate Appointment Creation: Click the Add Appointment button.
- Specify Appointment Type: From the Type dropdown menu, select the Nonbillable option.
- Select Internal "Patient": In the Patients dropdown menu, select your Office Name. This name is usually prefixed with "NA" (for "Not Applicable") followed by your location name.
- Complete Required Fields: You must then select the following details:
- Authorization
- Appointment Type
- Location
- Travel
- Select Time and Date: Select the desired time on the calendar for the appointment.
- Configure Recurring Sessions (If Applicable): For sessions that repeat, check the Recurring checkbox to set up the recurrence pattern.
This process ensures that the provider's time is blocked for non-patient-facing activities while maintaining accurate scheduling records.
