🧑🏫 Training Document: Insurance / Credit Consultation – Tariff Master Screen
📍 Objective
This training explains how to use the Tariff Master Screen to manage doctor consultation charges based on:
- Insurance/Credit party
- Doctor
- Department
- Hospital Location
By the end, you’ll be able to:
- Understand how the system determines charges for insured vs. walk-in patients.
- Modify doctor-wise charges (IP/OP/Walk-in).
- Use filters, apply bulk updates, and save changes.
🖥️ 1. What is the Tariff Master Screen?
The Tariff Master is a centralized configuration screen where hospital admins or billing staff define how much to charge for doctor consultations based on:
- Insurance tie-ups (e.g., ICICI, Medi Assist)
- Doctor's department
- Hospital location
It ensures that correct pricing is applied during billing for both In-Patient (IP) and Out-Patient (OP) consultations.
🔧 2. Filter Section (Top Area)
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Location | Select the hospital branch (e.g., AT-Hyderabad). Charges can vary by branch. |
| Department | Select the medical department (e.g., Orthopedics, Gynaecology). Use ALL to view all. |
| Priority | This means the Insurance or Credit Party (e.g., ICICI). Determines which tariff set is used. |
| Doctor | Filter by specific doctor or select ALL to view the entire list. |
- Get: Pulls doctor data based on selected filters.
- + / - and Number field: Used to bulk increase or decrease charges.
- Apply: Applies the bulk changes across the grid.
Example Usage:
+ 100 → Increases all charges by ₹100- 50 → Decreases all charges by ₹50
📋 3. Main Table – Understanding the Tariff Grid
| Column | Description |
|---|
| SNo | Serial number of the entry. |
| Department | Doctor’s department/specialty. |
| Doctor | Full name of the doctor. |
| Walkin Charges | Charges if the patient is not using insurance (self-paying). |
| Print Name | Name shown on bills/reports (can be customized). |
| Doctor Code | Internal hospital code for the doctor (e.g., CC-001). |
| IP Charge | Charges for in-patient services under selected insurance. |
| OP Charge | Charges for out-patient consultation under selected insurance. |
🧑⚕️ 4. Sample Row Explanation
- Doctor: Dr. SREE RAMA RAJA
- Department: Critical Care
- Walk-in Charges: ₹400
- Doctor Code: CC-001
- IP Charge (ICICI): ₹1200
- OP Charge (ICICI): ₹300
Interpretation: If a patient comes with ICICI insurance:
→ ₹300 for OP consultation
→ ₹1200 for IP admission
If no insurance: ₹400 walk-in charge applies.
| Button | Function |
