Setting Up Telehealth Exams

If you integrate with Eyefinity EHR, you need to set up telehealth exam services in AcuityLogic Admin before you can pull details from telehealth exams documented in Eyefinity EHR into AcuityLogic POS.

  • For information on documenting telehealth exams in Eyefinity EHR, see Documenting a Telehealth Exam.
  • For information on the billing codes CMS recognizes for telehealth services, see Understanding Telehealth Codes.
  • Depending on the code and insurance you are billing, you may be required to capture additional information as a part of your telehealth exam services. Information such as Place of Service and Procedure Modifiers for telehealth should be entered before submitting the claim. For information on editing claims, see Editing Claims.
  • If you have insurance billing rules set up, you may need to review your existing billing rules or create new billing rules to address the Procedure Modifiers required by certain insurance carriers for telehealth. For information on insurance billing rules, see Setting Up Insurance Billing Rules.
