No matter, this method proves troublesome as a new empty AR session will get created where i’m still trying to figure out how this could affect future claim actions. Currently, I believe it gets ignored and just clutters the ar session table. Still, i’ve added a button for user to update insurance close level hoping to put this to bed for awhile.
Yes, this once hidden amount is/was befuddling to me too.
The intentions(i’m guessing and not speaking for original author) is to allow charging off undistributed funds(to balance all charges against payment where payment can’t be allocated otherwise against a patient charge via individual charge adjustments etc) to a global account. This account is only global to the payment however and not a running total. Out of sight, out of mind so to say. User will get this option to store balances in global account if user finishes payments allocations and there is still a balance against payment.
I’m supposing intentions where to reconcile this account at some future point in development but, I can’t find that was ever done. So, I thought billers would want to know about this fund and/or return funds back to payment to be debited against if accidental population or a woops, a patient charge was changed between billing and posting. Bottom line, I thought biller should have options to view and/or recover this fund.
hmm, looks like I need to restyle that form field and give a little more space…
Hope to have a testing patch today.
