Andre Shows Users how to Update an Eaglesoft Fee Schedule without Exclusive Use

Question: When I try to edit my Fee Schedules I get an Exclusive use warning. Can I work on Fee Schedules while other users are in Eaglesoft?

Answer: You can!

You can edit any Fee Schedule you want but what you cannot do is Update Treatment Plans and/or update Scheduled Services.  But don’t let that stop you.  Go ahead and edit your Fee Schedule and when you have time, log everyone out and then update your Treatment Plans and Scheule.

What I do recommend is, on a regular basis (say once a month). Open and edit each of your fee schedules to “catch” anyone who is newly attached to a Fee Schedule. Imagine, someone who was covered by MetLife and switched to coverage by Delta Dental and also already scheduled services or has a Treatment might get updated even if the FS was changed months ago.

After editing a Fee Schedule, you will get the following Warning (please read each carefully):

Then this:

…and this (WARNING: Any pre-authorizations you have outstanding connected to this Fee Schedule will be deleted.  If they have been sent, there is no disruption but there will no longer be an outstanding Pre-authorization).
