Adding Codes & Metrics

Adding Codes & Metrics

ADD CODES & METRICS

STEP 1: Navigate to the CODES & METRICS tab within the Account Settings section.

STEP 2: Review the default codes (picture below) to see which ones need to be added for your practice.

 

 

STEP 3: You can edit the current codes to have alternative descriptions and/or appointment lengths or you can make any unnecessary ones inactive by clicking on the CPT code within the list.

 

 

STEP 4: Add any additional CPT codes by clicking on the +Add New CPT Code button.

      Service Type → Select the appropriate service type from the dropdown (Intake, Individual, Family, Group) or click on the (New) button to create your own service type.

      The service type distinction is how the CPT codes will be organized in the dropdown when creating an appointment.

      CPT Code → Enter the CPT code that you’d like to add to your account.

      Description → Enter a description for the CPT code.

      This description is used to help your staff select the correct code when creating their appointments. This description will not appear on the superbills.

      Length (minutes) → Enter the typical duration of an appointment with this CPT code.

      When selecting this CPT code from the dropdown within the appointment creation window, the duration of the appointment will automatically reflect whatever length was entered here (note: the duration can always be adjusted as needed).

STEP 5: Create telehealth codes using the appropriate modifier code (e.g., -95, -GT).

 

      For practices that conduct telehealth sessions, you’ll want to create additional CPT codes that include the proper modifier code in order to accurately create superbills and/or submit e-claims.

      First, create a new service type by clicking on the (New) button and then label the service type something such as “Telehealth” or “Teletherapy”


 

 

      Once you have created the “Telehealth” service type, click +Add New CPT Code

      Service Type → select “Telehealth” from the dropdown

      CPT Code → Enter the regular CPT code followed by the appropriate modifier (e.g., -95, -GT)

      Description → Add another differentiator before the code’s description such as “Telehealth; Individual psychotherapy”

      Length (minutes) → specify the default duration for this type of appointment

 

 

 

STEP 6: Review list of global Routine Outcome Measures (ROMs) and add additional ones as needed.

      Within the Codes & Metrics tab, click on the Routine Outcome Measures header.

      Review the list of global ROMs available for immediate use.

      Click +Add New Routine Outcome Measure button to input your own.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STEP 7: Review list of global Interventions and add additional ones as needed.

      Within the Codes & Metrics tab, click on the Interventions header.

      Review the list of global Interventions.

      For any that you would like to activate, click on the name of the Intervention and then click the “Active” checkbox.

      By clicking the “Default” checkbox, these interventions will automatically populate for selection within the session notes (see example below).

 

 

 

 

 

      For active interventions that do not have the “Default” checkbox selected, you will be able to add them to specific session notes by clicking on the + button within the note’s interventions section (example below)

 

      To add new interventions to your account, click on the +Add New Intervention button and fill out the pertinent fields.

      Intervention Type → The list of current intervention types will populate in the dropdown.

      If you would like to create a new intervention type for selection, click on the (New) button.

      Intervention Description → This is the description of the intervention that will appear on the session note.


STEP 8: Review the global Symptoms list and add additional ones as needed.

      Within the Codes & Metrics tab, click on the Symptoms header.

      Review the list of global Symptoms.

      For any that you would like to activate, click on the name of the Symptom and then click the “Active” checkbox.

      By clicking the “Default” checkbox, these symptoms will automatically populate for selection within the session notes (same as with the interventions shown above).

      For active symptoms that do not have the “Default” checkbox selected, you will be able to add them to the session note by clicking on the + button within the Symptoms section (same as with the interventions shown above).

      To add new symptoms, click on the +Add New Symptom button and fill out the pertinent fields.


          Symptom Type → The list of current intervention types will populate in the dropdown.

      If you would like to create a new symptom type for selection, click on the (New) button.

      Symptom Description → This is the description of the symptom  that will appear on the session note.
