OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of a simplified billing form on billings recovery.
METHODS
An interrupted time series analysis of weekly presentations and billings between 1 April 2019 and 14 June 2020.
RESULTS
Notably, 3228 patients were included (2030 Overseas Visitor Agreement, 359 Transport Accident Commission and 839 Work Cover). There was a $208.34 (95% CI 155.44-261.23, P < 0.0001) increase in billings per episode, that is, 59% (95% CI 44-74, P < 0.0001), from a baseline of $351.75/episode. There was no significant change in the actual billing rate during the pandemic.
CONCLUSION
Total billings did not change. Less patients were identified, but each generated 59% more billings.
目的
评估简化计费表对账单回收的影响。
方法
对 2019 年 4 月 1 日至 2020 年 6 月 14 日期间每周的就诊和账单进行中断时间序列分析。
结果
共纳入 3228 例患者（2030 例海外游客协议、359 例运输事故委员会和 839 例工作赔偿）。每个病例的账单增加了 208.34 美元（95%CI 155.44-261.23，P<0.0001），即增加了 59%（95%CI 44-74，P<0.0001），基线为 351.75 美元/例。大流行期间实际计费率没有显著变化。
结论
总账单没有变化。被识别的患者较少，但每个患者的账单增加了 59%。
