The Patients tab includes a list of patients with all associated episodes and eligibility for each patient.
This section of AxxessDDE allows you to identify Medicare plan information, edit a patient profile, view patient episodes and payment information, edit claims, new claim entry, and even run eligibility for new and existing patients. Patients may be sorted by HIC # (Medicare #) and Name.
If you select the patient’s name or HIC number, you are taken to the Patient’s Profile. This is where you can see all claims, eligibility, and demographic information for the patient.
