Hi There,

Does OpenEMR have functionality that captures pos_checkout.php invoices in to a list by patient?

We generate receipts for appointments using “Fees --> Checkout.” The generated receipt includes an invoice number. This method has proven difficult in the past if needing to re-print past receipts, as OpenEMR does not allow one to simply re-open “Fees --> Checkout” for any encounter but the most recent.

The only place I have found that generates a list of pos_checkout.php invoices is “Reports --> Financial --> Sales” and selecting the option “Details.” Here, the list is organized by Item and then Date. One can also specify a date range. From here, each pos_checkout.php invoice is listed and can be re-printed as needed. This method does allow the task to be completed, but if there are many encounters for a specific day, there is a lot of wading through invoices in order to find the correct one, since there is no identifying information until each specific invoice is clicked on.

So, my long-winded question, is whether invoices from pos_checkout.php are available anywhere else within the platform? Is it possible for these invoices to be organized by patient and not just date?

Thank you,
Mike

If the search filter is patient name with a limited number of names, consider printing Billing View of Past History. If more details are required, print the EOB Posting Invoice.

I presume patients are in need of another copy of the receipt that had been given them on the day of service.

Yes that is exactly right, this is for patients who lose their receipts.

As always, thank you fsgl!

It was my pleasure.

Hope that you’re finding many new features in 4.2.0, such as the Day Sheet, helpful.
