EXTRA INFORMATION about Virtual Assessment Claiming: For a Virtual Assessment, where the patient will be swabbed in the same practice (or a different site in their network sharing the same enrollment database) the Virtual Assessment fee CANNOT be claimed. The assessment is funded under the Simple or Full assessment / swab claim and cannot be claimed twice. In this instance PARK the form, so that it can be completed and submitted at the time of swabbing. This claim will be for either: •
Simple or Full Assessment and swab
Any PARKED COVID-19 form awaiting completion and claiming will show when Halcyon is opened for that patient. See screenshot.
