ChargeTracker Setup Item Summary Codes

When exporting charges, if the summary option selected is to summarize all items with the same category, then the export file will export the summary charge code.

Example:

Status                                Item Category                  Summary code
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Medicare (active)             Dietary                              65454
Medicare (active)             Personal                           9767890
Medicare (active)             Nursing                             KUG666
Private (active)                 Dietary                              6589566
Private (active)                 Personal                           9ghfghf90
Private (active)                 Nursing                             KU976mnn

Summary Code file maintenance is in the setup section of ChargeTracker.  This maintenance can be accessed through Item Setup Information - Summary Codes tab.  This maintenance ONLY shows Active and Hold Status types.

Note: When exporting charges, if the summary option selected is to summarize all items with the same item id, then the export file will use the item charge code (maintained in Item Information) instead of the Item Summary Code.
