The Maximum hours should not exceed the limit specified billing hold on the Billing Review page under Billing > Billing Review prevents billing for services that exceed a configured number of daily maximum hours.

Billing Review Page: Maximum Hours Should not Exceed the Limit Specified Hold

For Linked contracts (UPR), the configured number of maximum hours (such as 12, 14, or 16 hours) is set up by authorized Payers and synced to the Provider application.

For Internal contracts, Providers configure the number of maximum hours per Service Code(s). To set up maximum hours for a Service Code, Go to Admin > Reference Table Management > Contract Service Code. Enter the Max Billing Hours that can be billed daily for the Service Code.

Contract Service Code Window: Max Billing Hours Field

The Max Billing Hours field allows values from 1-24. If a higher number is entered, the system automatically adjusts to 24.
