Hello, I need help, please! :) We just switched to Athena and I have already run into a question. (Well many, but this is the one at the moment.) In order to create a claim for an assistant/PA, our old system allowed us to clone the ticket and then make adjustments on the cloned ticket to reflect the info for the assistant (provider name, modifiers, etc). Does Athena have a similar option or do we need to create an entirely different claim and re-key everything?

Thank you,
Kim
 
You will need to create a new encounter and re-key your codes in order to bill them out. I have used several EMR's and not found one that I actually like, they all have their positives and negatives.
