NEW FEATURES
Create your own Diagnoses List
Now when charting your patient’s encounter or adding diagnoses to a patient’s chart and superbill, you can use a custom diagnoses list to quickly populate frequently used diagnosis codes. In the flyout panel that appears when adding diagnoses to chart notes or the patient’s summary, you’ll now see a section labeled “My Dx list”. Build your list by searching for the diagnosis and selecting “Add to My List”. Click here to learn more >>
Superbill diagnosis search has been improved
Easily find diagnosis codes for your superbills using the updated search functionality. Simply start by searching for the patient’s diagnosis and either selecting the ICD-10 code or refine your search using the provided filters. Click here to learn more >>
UPDATED FEATURES
ICD-9 codes removed from superbill
To ensure that bills are being accepted by the insurance and billing companies, Practice Fusion has removed ICD-9 codes from the printout and downloadable HL7 versions of the superbill. This change will ensure that you will not receive any errors when sending your bills to your biller.
