Notes

Pricelist Discipline

A pricelist discipline is a master collection of tariff codes that are used to generate pricelists.  


Examples of disciplines:

  • Medical practioner codes
  • Physiotherapist codes


Tariff codes are unique within a collection , but may be duplicated across collections.


Example – code 0005 means something different in a physio-therapist environment than in a medical practitioner environment.

Price Collection

A price collection is a collection of tariff codes that can be billed in the system.


A price collection is subdivided into various pricelists.  Individual pricelists are tailored to carry the prices necessary for effective billing in the medical environment.


Individual price lists are linked to medical aids in the system. The system then “knows” which tariffs to charge, based on the medical aid to which the patient belong.


Price collections are linked to a financial year.

Local prices vs GoodX prices

GoodX issues official price collections to clients on demand. The prices are automatically updated from time to time, when necessary.


Users have the option to

  • the GoodX collections without any changes
  • localize the GoodX collections on site by modifying prices , adding local codes etc.; Local prices will not be modified or updated by GoodX
  • create own price collections that are not linked in any way to the official GoodX collections
