Prelude Q&A

How do I get the address edit off my WQ?

Medicaid pending:

Remember this is an account status and is entered in the guarantor record.

From registration select the guarantor account.
Click in the Account status field (top right) and select Medicaid Pending.

Important note: Any person who flags an account as Medicaid pending will have to go into the billing module and set the billing status appropriately.

Billing>Account Contact
Select the ellipsis in the New Activity field (Choose: Billing Status)
Click Add Activity-In the billing Status choose "Don't Age and Send Statements." This ensures the patent continues to receive their bill while awaiting Medicaid approval.

Once approved/denied for Medicaid, the account status must be removed and the billing status must be changed to "Age and Send Statements."

Sherpa:

Sherpa will be a guarantor account, named ECU Sherpa, and the coverage will need to be attached to this account.

Go to the Blue guarantor folder
Click Add
Choose Add'l Type
Choose ECU Sherpa from category list
Enter the person that is the employee
Click Cvg and Add'l Info and enter the coverage-This could be the employee or the patient.

Special Programs:

S-CAP, LME, Cancer Fund, Migrant Workers and Ryan White will all have a P/F guarantor account with the applicable coverage record attached.

If a patient has Ryan White or S-CAP, that co-payment will be made with the "other payment" button during check-in. Users will need to post that payment through the later distribution method.

How to Remove Address Edit from WQ:

All addresses need to be placed on line 1 of the Address Field in the Demographics screen. If the address is too long and flows to a second line, start from the end of the address and remove any vowels until the address is only on Line 1. If it appears that there is only one line and you are still getting the edit, highlight and cut the address, and press the backspace key until you see the yellow yield sign. Then paste the address back into the field and click Finish.
