Case Binder: Cases (Fusion Enterprise)

  Permissions! Clinic Staff must have Administrator, Billing Manager, Clinical Director, Front Office, Operations Manager, or Staff Therapist Permissions assigned in order to manage Case Binder.

Fusion Enterprise understands that managing all of your cases is a critical function of any practice. We have ensured that you can run all of your practices front office needs through Fusion Enterprise and make it as easy as we can. This series of introductory articles will cover the essential aspects of managing Case Binders with Fusion Enterprise.

Case Binder: Cases 

The first tab of the Binder is a list of cases that are in this Binder. With Binders cases are pulled into a Binder and not pushed. This means that you open a Binder and add a Case to a Binder, instead of starting with a case and selecting a binder for it to go into.

At the top of the Cases tab there is a place for a comment if you wish to write a note as to why the Cases are bound. This is optional and for your convenience. There is also a place for two External IDs. These are used when integrating with a 3rd-party system, such as a hospital billing system. (These are for display only and would be set automatically via the integration.)

The grid contains a list of all of the Cases in this binder.
