Frequently Asked Questions
If a payer adjusts/recoups payments, will the administrator be alerted?
Yes. If a payer recoups a service, the payroll module adjusts the next payroll for you, taking the burden of adjustments from you. Additionally, if a payer pays after previously denying the claim, PIMSY accounts for that and pays the provider accordingly for all commission-based providers.
If I don’t want my employees to see how much a payer pays for services, can I allow this in reporting?
Yes! You can customize settings for your specific needs. You decide what information is shown on the provider’s payroll reports.
Is there a feature that handles payroll adjustments when there are changes in billing or service denials?
Yes. PIMSY EHR’s Payroll feature automatically adjusts payroll calculations in response to changes such as service denials or recoupments by payers. This functionality reduces the administrative burden on staff and ensures accurate payroll processing under varying circumstances.
Does the Payroll feature withhold taxes and calculate benefits?
No, PIMSY’s feature calculates payroll up to the gross. Payroll reports can be imported or integrated into QuickBooks or other payroll software for withholdings and benefit management.
