You have the ability to ‘SALT’ (same as last time) charges on a purchase. This means that clicking the SALT button on a purchase will auto-add the same billing codes from the previous purchase to the current purchase.
Here's how to SALT charges on a purchase:
From a patient treatment purchase, click the SALT button. Billing codes from the patients most recent purchase prior to this one will populate.
(If the most recent purchase has no codes added, then no codes will add to this purchase.)
💡Pro tip:
The SALT button will only appear in the Purchase if no codes have been added yet. Remove any existing codes in order to SALT the charges from the most recent purchase.
Note!
When you click the SALT button on the Purchase, the system pulls over the charges, including diagnosis pointing, from the previous purchase. This is different from SALTing your selections in the Plan.
When you SALT the Plan, you're copying over your Plan Selections from the previous note. These selections will appear in your current note, but charges and diagnosis pointing are not included.
To enter charges for the visit, you'll need to either:
- Import Charges to manually add your selected charges, or
- SALT the Purchase to bring over the previous charges with diagnosis pointing.
