If a third party is set to use Schedule Items - see THIRD PARTY SCHEDULE then amounts to claim are entered here.  These codes are used by all Providers.  The amounts claimed by each Provider should therefore be the same.  They can be used to setup amounts claimed under contract, such as the Clinical Services Contract, where there are a standard set of charges.

As these can be used by all providers, it is imperative that when prices change, all claims are entered up to the date of change before the prices are altered.

It is therefore recommended that only the System Administrator has access to this area to avoid the altering of charges that will affect everyone.
