One row per worklist reason - the free-text reason a claim was placed on a biller worklist in Elation Billing. Each row joins back to the claim via claim_id; a claim on a worklist (see the worklist table) can have one or more reasons. This table’s columns and relationships are shown in the Hosted Database schema.
worklist_reason.claim_id is the Elation Billing claim id and joins to claim.id - it is not an EHR bill id.
For reporting on but not limited to:
  • Why individual claims were placed on a worklist
  • The most common worklist reasons across a practice
  • Pairing each worklisted claim with its reason(s)

where wr.is_deleted = false
  and wr.claim_id = 1234567890  -- Replace with actual claim ID
