As a regular practice, billers have to select CPT codes, Modifiers, and Units individually when generating a charge from the New Charge screen. This is a time consuming process. To minimize these efforts, you can use the CPT macros functionality when generating the charge from New Charge screen.
A CPT macro is a preconfigured set of frequently used CPT codes along with modifiers and units. If you are using a set of 10 or 15 CPT codes frequently, you can configure the CPT macros to add all these CPTs at a single click.
Key Points to Know when Adding CPT Codes Using Macros
• | You can edit CPT codes, Modifiers, and Units once macros are selected on the New Charge screen before saving or generating the charge. |
• | You can add more than one CPT Macros one after another when generating charge on the New Charge screen. |

1. | From left menu items, click New Charge. |

3. | In the Line Item Details section; |
