Programme SAP RNABG000 - IS-H: Determine Cost Portions with Workers' Comp. Assoc. Billing

Description
In outpatient Workers' Compensation Association billing, the amountinvoiced is broken down for accounting purposes. The system determinesthe WCA physician costs that are to be reimbursed to the hospital, andthe total amount of the medical services performed.
The following costs are reimbursed:

  • Material costs

  • These are general personnel and material costs, and also the costsincurred through the use of medical instruments and apparatus. Theyalso include certain types of material costs.
    • WCA physician's fee to hospital

    • Since the material costs mentioned above do not cover all the costsincurred by the hospital, the physician has to give a certainpercentage of his/her fee to the hospital. This portion of the feecovers the following costs:
      Administrative services including secretarial staff
      Setoff of damage against benefits
      You can use this program to periodically calculate the totals of thefollowing cost portions per WCA physician/organizational unit:
      • Material costs

      • WCA physician's fee to hospital

      • Physician's daily attendance fees

      • These cost portions are output in the local currency. This is thecurrency of the company code to which the institution in question isassigned. If amounts have been invoiced in different currencies, allamounts are translated into the local currency.
        The invoices for the WCA physicians are output and broken down by thefollowing billing types:
        • General treatment

        • Special treatment

        • Note
          • The report only includes invoices that were transferred successfully to
          • Financial Accounting.
            • The incoming payments from Financial Accounting are included when the
            • cost portions are determined.
              • If an invoice is included in a report run, the system does not make any
              • internal note of this. Consequently, if you run the report again,invoices that have already been evaluated are displayed again.
                It is recommended that you start the report periodically. Also, pleaseensure that the invoice creation periods do not overlap, and that thereare no gaps between periods.
                One way of ensuring this is to save the report variants used for eachreport run.
