The structure of this file is described in the table below: 

	Column name	Column content
1.	ITEM_NAME	Name of an item.
2.	ITEM_CODE	This code is UNIQUE for each item.
3.	CODE_TYPE	The type of your code. Possible here: 3 - CPT 4 - HCPCS 5 - E/M 6 - LOINC 7 - GRC
4.	SHORT_CODE	Some characters of your choice. Not nessesary.(10 characters)
5.	ITEM_GROUP	Group for items.
6.	ITEM_PRICE	Price for an item
7.	BILLING_CATEGORY	The type of payment.
8.	INSURANCE_NAME	Name of the insurance.
9.	ITEM_DESCRIPTION	Description.

 

Not all fields are required; Required fields are: ITEM_NAME ITEM_CODE

 

NOTE:

If price is defined but billing category and insurance name stays empty, this price will be the default price (always valid). --> if you have only one price for an item, it is better to leave billing category and insurance name empty. FOR EACH PRICE there needs to be ONE line. Item name, item code, code type, short code, item group and item description should have exactly the same information (this will be saved in one table). Item price, billing category insurance name will be saved in a second table. The importer looks if a item with this specific item code exists already. If yes, then the other item information (item name, code type, short code, group, description) will be updated and prices will be updated or inserted. If item is not find, the item with all information and all prices will be inserted.
