There are two ways to print an HCFA-1500 form within DrChrono; through the appointment window and the Live Claims Feed. Let's take a look at both.
All patient data listed in this article is sample data. This is not a real person or real patient data.
First, through the appointment window.
- Select the patient's appointment from your calendar.
- Select the Billing tab.
- Select Other Forms on the right of the screen. When you click on it, you will be given several options; 2 for HCFA-1500 forms.
-
- The top option, HCFA/1500 02/12, is the one you will want to use if you are printing on regular plain white paper, or are saving the form electronically.
-
- The second option, HCFA/1500 02/12 (text) is the one you will want to use if you have red, pre-lined HCFA form paper in your printer. This form will print just the text of the document that will line up and print in the appropriate box on the HCFA form.
Now, through the Live Claims Feed.
- Navigate to the Live Claims Feed by hovering over Billing and selecting Live Claims Feed.
- Select your patient by entering their name or date of birth in the Patient field, entering the drc claim number, or updating the date range and identifying your patient by date of service.
- Click on the date of service that corresponds with the HCFA you want to print/save.
- On the top right of the screen, you will see 2 options; HCFA/1500 and HCFA/1500 (text).
-
- The first, HCFA/1500, is the one you will want to use if you are printing on regular plain white paper, or are saving the form electronically.
-
- The second, HCFA/1500 (text) is the one you will want to use if you have red, pre-lined HCFA form paper in your printer. This form will print just the text of the document that will line up and print where it should be on the HCFA form.
