The Accounts Receivable accounting report is a report that will allow you to find all unpaid invoices for a specified service period, regardless of their status. This report is available for customers who are using the OSCAR billing platform in British Columbia.
Running the Accounts Receivable Report
To run the report, go through the following steps:
- Open your admin panel by clicking on ‘Admin’ (Juno UI) or 'Administration' (Classic UI) at the top of the screen.
- If you are using a smaller screen resolution, the ‘Admin’ option in the Juno UI may be located under the ‘More’ menu. Click on ‘More’, then click on ‘Admin’ to open the administration panel.
- If you are using a smaller screen resolution, the ‘Admin’ option in the Juno UI may be located under the ‘More’ menu. Click on ‘More’, then click on ‘Admin’ to open the administration panel.
- Click on the 'Billing' tab on the left to expand it, then click on the 'Accounting Reports' link. The ‘Billing Report’ page will open. It looks like this:
- On the right, select the following:
- Select Account: Select the provider you would like to run this report for.
- Report Type: Accounts Receivable
- Start & End Date: Start and end service dates. Note that running the report over an extended period may slow the EMR down for other users. We recommend running the report in smaller increments (a few months) to avoid negatively impacting the clinic’s EMR experience.
- Insurer:
- For provincial claims, select MSP, WCB and ICBC only.
- For private claims only, select only Private.
- Select all four options if you want to see all invoices.
- Click on the 'Create Report' button.
The EMR will generate the report results and prompt you to download a file that you will open to see the results.
