CPC: What is the Visit Allocator?
The Visit Allocator [VA] tool is used to estimate which services you're providing on which visit. This is very important to use when creating plans that incorporate insured and non-insured visits. When applying discounts to non-insured visits you want to ensure that the discount rules you defined are being applied properly. You're also able to print out the VA so that you can see the patient's balance due at any point in time and/or to help keep the patient visits on track manually. The tool does NOT record or track the visits in real-time, that's something that your EHR will do.
