Viewing an injury's bills & the Bills Ledger

Narrated walkthrough · recorded in the live Mindbill app

Step 1 — The Bills tab: the per-bill table and totals

Open the injury and the Bills tab lists every bill on the claim — bill number, date of service, status, codes, submission type, claims administrator, charge, payment, and balance. Five bills here, $29,979.00 billed, totaled live at the bottom. It's the whole claim's billing on one screen.

Step 2 — Sort and search the bills

Every column sorts — click Charge to rank by dollar amount, ascending or descending. The search box filters the table instantly, down to a single bill when you need it. So a claim with a dozen bills narrows to exactly the one you're chasing in a keystroke.

Step 3 — Switch to the Procedure Codes tab

Switch to Procedure Codes and Mindbill explodes the bills into one row per line item — every CPT and medical-legal code across all five bills, with its units, date of service, provider, charge, payment, and balance. Instead of opening each bill, you see every line on the claim in one list.

Step 4 — Read per-code reimbursement history

This is per-code reimbursement history. Search one code to see every time it was billed and what came back, or sort by charge — so you know exactly how each code is being paid across the whole claim. That's how you spot a code the payer consistently downcodes before it costs you on the next bill.

Step 5 — Print the Bills Ledger (with fee schedule)

Click Bills Ledger for the printable statement. By default it shows your expected amounts — the CA OMFS and Medical-Legal Fee Schedule allowed — right next to the charge, the payment posted, and the balance owed. It's the internal view that proves what each bill should have paid.

Step 6 — Print without the fee schedule

Need a clean copy for the patient or their attorney? Print without Fee Schedule drops the expected column entirely — just charges, payments, and balances, nothing internal. Same ledger, external-facing, so you never hand out your expected-reimbursement math.

Step 7 — Control what prints with per-bill toggles

You control what prints. Uncheck any bill to leave it off the ledger — the totals recompute on the spot, and the checkboxes themselves never print. That's an injury's bills, three ways: by bill, by code, and as a print-ready ledger you tailor to its audience.

Sometimes you need to see every bill filed under one injury — three ways: by bill, by procedure code, and as a printable ledger you can hand a payer or an attorney. Mindbill's injury page carries a Bills tab, a Procedure Codes tab that explodes the bills into one row per line item, and a Bills Ledger PDF with an option to drop the fee-schedule column for an external copy. (The example below is a real sandbox injury — Jason Miller's bilateral-wrist CT, #57: 5 bills / 10 line items, $29,979.00 billed.)
