Save Time with XML Export

QuickCare provides a way to send census and demographic information to third party vendors on a regular basis without having to take the time to create reports based on QC Census and Resident Lists. The XML Export feature is available to all QuickCare clients and, once activated, will send an initial report and updates each time changes are made to these areas of QuickCare. Your pharmacy, dietary software or other third party vendors can either use the file you send them or schedule with your IT department to automatically retrieve these files.

The setup area is located under System Maintenance > Facility Maintenance > Facility Preferences - Clinical on the Import/Export Setting Tab.
Please contact QuickCare support if you need help setting up this area.

ANSI Override Coming Soon
Recently, intermediary IDs have been changing faster than ever before, largely due to the MAC contracts being awarded. In response to this, the QuickCare development team is working on product enhancements to allow users to set up intermediary specific ANSI 837I header values. To make this possible, there will be a new tab in the Payor Setup called ANSI 837I Setup, which is currently available for the Generic 837I Claim File Creation intermediary. On this tab, users will be able to specify exactly what should be entered in each header loop and segment, as well as an 835 Sender ID which is used for the automatic posting of RAs. Users will also be able to specify the file name to which the Electronic Batch File will be saved. Each 837I location will display the default value, and if needed, the user can specify an override to use. This functionality will be available in V3.5 with the Medicare intermediaries, in order to accommodate changes to the intermediaries Receiver IDs and Sender IDs that occur with each new MAC. The V3.5 version is scheduled for release in mid- to late June 2008. For any suggestions or questions about this functionality please email us billing@quickcare.com or support@quickcare.com.
