Scheduled Insurance Reports

Scheduled Insurance - Detail; Scheduled Insurance - By Company

Run a Scheduled Insurance report to obtain a list of the patients for whom insurance forms are due to be generated. The Detail report generates the list by patient name, while the By Company report generates the list grouped by insurance company. Among other data, both reports include the last insurance receipt date and amount. Typically, the report is used to preview and confirm that the appropriate forms will be printed, or as a record of scheduled forms just printed.

Click to OpenData Source

This report gets its data from the Form Schedule section of the Form Submission tab of the Insurance detail page of the patient folder (If you have Edge Specialist, only the scheduled insurance forms for your Orthodontics specialty are included.)

Edge Cloud calculates whether a patient has a "scheduled due" form from the First Form Date, the Interval type, and the number of forms to print. If the Interval is monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually, a form is only considered "due" until the day of the month of the First Form Date. After that, the form is no longer "due", even within the same month. If the Interval is annually, a form is considered "due" the entire month of the First Form Date (plus the interval) regardless of the First Form Date day of the month. See "Patient Insurance Page" for details.

Click to OpenOpen the Report

Select Reporting from the Reporting section of the Home ribbon bar. Then from the Insurance section, open the Scheduled Insurance report. (You can also use the Search field to find the report you want to work with.) You might also be able to run this report from your Recent Reports or Quick Reports list. See "Run Edge Cloud Reports" for details.

Report TypeClosed - Choose to print a Detail report, which prints the report by patient, or the By Company report, which groups the data by insurance company.

Insurance Company FilterClosed - If you enable the Filter option, you can select to print the report for an individual insurance company. Otherwise, the report will include all insurance companies in your Edge Cloud system.

SubgroupClosed - You can optionally choose a subgroup to use to narrow the records to include on the report. Only records that fit your selected subgroup as well as all other report settings will be included. If you use a subgroup, the report will display the name of your selected subgroup just under the report name, so you know which criteria was used to generate the results. See "Subgroup Editor" for details.about creating subgroups.
