When reconciling a bill you are looking at the Exception List. These are billing records that basically have not been pre-approved. Pre-approval is the function the Residency record. You can add a Residency record directly from the Exception List, then examine the clients address information and assign an Eligibility Code. There are two addresses that you need to be concerned about, the Legal Address and the Hospital Address. A single Residency record will store both address and the MPR system will alert you if the billing record address has changed from the Residency record address. Next month, and each month after that, when the bill is processed the system will find the Residency record you added and use it to automatically code the billing record. You maintain complete control of what is automatically coded and can override what the system does on any billing record.

The data on the Per Diem file is a combination of the actual data from the import file (Provider Number, Inpatient Rate, and Provider Name) and a calculate amount equal to 35% of the Inpatient Rate. The 35% rate is calculated during importing and is not present in the download file from the State. The amount on the bill is compared to the 35% rate to determine if there is a billing error.
