Terminated Procedure Code
When a procedure code has been terminated in the PM, you get a warning message when the code is entered into charges and payments but it still allows you to use it.
Per MicroMD Support, the system is looking at the your day sheet date and it may be after the Active Thru date but you need to post a Date of Service before the Active Thru date thus the warning but the ability to post the procedure code.
Requesting this logic be changed, if a code is terminated it should not be usable after the termination date. Why not make the logic look at the "Date of Service" date instead of the "Day Sheet Date"

The system uses the procedure line service date which in manual entry the service date is populated with the daysheet date, that is populated in the row at the time of cpt entry. It gives a warning because at the time of cpt entry the system uses the lines service dates which by default are the same as the daysheet date. That is why it’s a warning to the user that it may not be able to be used. If we change after we have the service date possibly changed it would be on a save which user did not want because they then have to back track to far in the entry process. Most users enter the claims on the same day of service as their daysheet date this why the system was designed that way and the warning built at that point. This logic will not be changed.
