COMET Ancillary Charge Capture Application The key to the Ancillary Charge Capture Application
popularity is how it saves time and ends errors by
completely eliminating keying.
Because the COMET Ancillary Charge Capture application has dual functions - first as the Order Management application's automatic arm of charge creation and secondly as a data entry system for charges to be keyed by the facility - there's no keying. This not only saves your staff time but it also greatly reduces the chance of errors. And that's an especially important advantage when it comes to automatically recurring charges.
When a service provision is recorded in the Order Management application, charges are automatically created in the Ancillary system - and those charges can then be processed normally through to billing. What's more, the COMET Ancillary Charge Capture application gives you the ability and flexibility to post charges in either batch or individual mode for occasional and unscheduled services.
