This release adds a granular billing_status_detail column and provider reference columns to the bill table, exposing the provider roles recorded in the visit note billing section.

Schema Changes


Release Highlights

Billing Status Detail The existing billing_status column collapses eight underlying bill statuses into four categories (Unbilled, Billed, UnresolvedError, ResolvedError). The new billing_status_detail column exposes the full status shown in Billing Home, so you no longer have to reconstruct it. billing_status is unchanged. Values: Provider reference columns on bill The bill table now carries the provider roles from the visit note billing section. Previously only visit_note.physician_user_id was available, which does not always match the rendering provider shown on the bill. Three of the columns identify Elation user accounts. Resolve them to provider name, NPI, and credentials by joining the user table on user.physician_id:
  • rendering_provider_id — the provider who rendered the services on the bill.
  • supervising_provider_id — the supervising provider.
  • billing_provider_id — the billing provider (for example, incident-to billing).
The remaining column is a record ID into the bill’s referring-provider record, not a user account:
  • referring_provider_id — the referring-provider record; its name and state are already surfaced on bill as referring_provider and referring_provider_state.
Join the three user-backed *_provider_id columns to user on user.physician_id, not user.id.
