Values

In Microsoft Excel, ‘Values’ are the actual numbers that you are able to analyze/report on.  This type of data is quantitative (numerical). You will see the possible values at the top of the PivotTable Fields list as follows:
 

Here are the available values: 

• Adjustments: The dollar amount of included adjustments.
• Balance: For a given line, this will reflect how it affected the balance. If reporting by Post Date, it will show a change in balances over a given period of time. If reporting by claim ID, it will show a summation of all changes in the claim’s balance, which will give the current total. If reporting by aging bucket or service date, you’ll see the current balances in that bucket, or balances for that service date range. Balance is calculated as Charges + Adjustments + Total Payments.  
• Charge Units: The number of units of included charges.
• Charges: The dollar amount of included charges. 
• Insurance Payments: The dollar amount of insurance payments. 
• Patient Payments: The dollar amount of patient payments.
• Total Payments: The dollar amount of total payments (patient payments + insurance payments). 
• Total RVU: The Total RVU amount of included charges (for each procedure code, the assigned RVU * Charge Units). 
• Counts: A folder containing values relevant to charge counts.
  • Charge Claim Count: The total number of claims that make up the included charges.
  • Charge Line Count: The total number of charge lines that make up the included charges. 
  • Charge Patient Count: The total number of patients who have included charges. 

Additional Fields

The other available fields are how you might analyze or break down a number. This type of data is qualitative, grouping and dividing values out into categories. All non-date fields are grouped into folders by category. 

• Post Date Y-M-D: This allows a user to filter or group transactions based on their post dates. For instance, users may have this in the ‘Row’ group if they want to see financials by posting month. 
  • Post Year: The year value of the transaction’s post date. 
  • Post Month Name: The month name of the post date for the transaction. 
  • Post Day: The day of the transaction’s post date.
• Production Date Y-M-D: This allows a user to view their financials based on production date. When using Production Date, charges are filtered or grouped based on their dates of service, while payments are filtered or grouped based on the post dates. 
  • Production Year: For charges, this is the year value of the original date of service. For payments, this is the year of the transaction's post date. 
  • Production Month Name: For charges, this is the month name of the original date of service. For payments, this is the month name of the transaction's post date. 
  • Production Day: For charges, this is the day of the original date of service. For payments, this is the day of the transaction's post date.
• Service Date Y-M-D: This allows a user to filter or group transactions based on their service dates. Please note that payments will also be filtered or grouped based on originating service dates, regardless of when the payment was received. For instance, users may have this in the ‘Row’ group if they want to see financials by when the services were provided – if they want to review remaining balances for a given service date month, for instance. 
  • Service Year: The year value of the claim's service date. 
  • Service Month Name: The month name of the claim's service date.

  • Aging Financial Class: The insurance class for the relevant claim, calculated the same as it is on the Aging Analysis report – by selecting the highest claim level that has a corresponding send date populated on the claim. 
  • Aging Type: If the invoice date is populated on the claim, this is set to ‘Patient.’ Otherwise, if any insurance date is populated, it is set to ‘Insurance.’ Otherwise, self-pay claims and those missing primary payers are set to ‘Patient,’ and all others set to ‘Insurance.’
