The goal of this enhancement is to increase timeliness and collections of billable Non-Veterans Affairs (VA) care services. Enhancements to the existing VistA IB and AR software applications would allow for increased efficiency in workflow processes leading to best practices that would ultimately be reflected in improved customer service to our Veteran population. In order to meet these goals, this patch: 1. Allows users to manually add new bills to a Repayment Plan using the new ADD NEW BILL TO A PLAN option [PRCAC RPP ADD BILL]. 2. Updates the Repayment Plan Inquiry option [PRCAC PLAN INQUIRY] to: a) Properly display an Social Security Number (SSN) with leading zeroes in any of the SSN segments. b) Adds the Plan Date (Creation Date) and the First Payment Due Date (Start Date) to the Plan header display. c) Adds an AR Category column to the List of Bills section. This allows the bill to display the AR Category associated with the bill. d) Updates the Plan Schedule section to identify any bills that were skipped (forborne) allowing the Paid? column to display either N (not paid), Y (paid), or F (Forbear). 3. Allows Repayment Plans that are closed because bills were suspended to have a status of Closed instead of Paid in Full. The Audit Log will show these plans as Closed with a Reason of Administratively Closed. 4. Allows the Administrative Cost Adjustment Option [PRCAF ADJ ADMIN] to adjust the outstanding balance if the bill being adjusted is in a Repayment Plan. 5. Allows the Transaction History for a Patient option [PRCA TRANS HISTORY] to display the new RPP TERMINATED transaction type when typing ?? at the Transaction Type Prompt. 6. Adds the Repayment Plan Status Report option [PRCAC PLAN STATUS] to the Repayment Plan Menu. This new report allows users to review a summary of all Repayment Plans in a user selected status. 7. Allows the Enter a New Repayment Plan option [RCRP ENTER PAYMENT PLAN] to set the AT CS? field (#1.04) if the option finds bills already in the Cross-Servicing Debt Referral program when identifying the initial list of bills eligible for inclusion into a Repayment Plan for the debtor.
