The Convert Ins. Provider Codes utility checks the physician file for numeric codes and converts the codes to the standard Medisoft format. To make the new code, the utility takes the provider’s initials and adds 00 at the end. If that code already exists, the utility increments the number to create a unique value.
The utility next checks the insurance file for numeric codes and converts the codes to the Medisoft standard format. To make the new code, the utility takes the first three letters of the insurance company’s name and adds 00 at the end. If that code already exists, the utility increments the number to create a unique value.
The utility then updates the provider and insurance company codes in the following tables and fields.
