Getting Started > Setting Up eServices
Before you can use the PracticeWorks eServices, you must verify the provider information.
To verify the provider information:
Select Lists > Employees. The Employee List window is displayed.
Select the first doctor and click Edit. The Employee Properties window is displayed.
In the Employee type field, verify that Doctor is selected.
It is not recommended that you use the Facility in the Employee type field with Electronic Claims.
Click the Insurance tab to display the provider's insurance information.
In the Elect. claims file field, enter your PracticeWorks eClaims account number.
You cannot submit electronic claims without a number in this field.
Verify that all fields are populated with the appropriate provider ID numbers. Dashes or spaces should not be included.
In the Treating entity field, select Person if the provider is a real person and not a facility.
Under Billing Doctor/Facility, use the drop-down list to specify who should be paid when the employee is a treating provider.
In the Other Information section, scroll down to the provider’s Specialty. If it is other than a General Practice provider, enter the numeric ADA code for the provider specialty.
Repeat for all licensed dentists in the practice.
