Processing charges and payments

Review donation charges and record donor payment outcomes against external evidence.

Step by step

  1. Prepare the processing charge Clinical Coordinator

    The Clinical Coordinator records the donation, service description and amount in Draft. Check the description against the service performed and correct the amount under the organization's agreed charging procedure before requesting the billing handoff.

    • Record the service and draft amount
    • Updates Processing charges, Donations
  2. Approve the charge Clinical Coordinator

    The Clinical Coordinator reviews the service and amount, then approves the change from Draft to Approved. Agree who conducts this review during setup and how the team handles a charge needing correction or cancellation.

    • Decide whether Draft becomes Approved
    • Updates Processing charges
    ApprovalA person approves before the work moves on.
  3. Record the billing handoff Clinical Coordinator

    The Clinical Coordinator marks the charge Invoiced after the agreed billing handoff has occurred. A cancelled charge becomes Voided under the correction procedure. Keep the accounting document and allocation work in the connected accounting service.

    • Record Invoiced or Voided as applicable
    • Updates Processing charges
  4. Confirm the donor payment Admin

    The Admin records the donor, received date, amount and external reference. Change Pending to Confirmed after checking receipt evidence, or record Refunded after a confirmed refund. The Clinical Coordinator reads the result when handling the donor's operational questions.

    • Record confirmed receipt or refund evidence
    • Updates Payments, Donors

Where it usually breaks

And how to keep it from happening.

  • Unclear service wording. A reviewer should understand what was charged from the description and linked donation.
  • Premature confirmation. Check receipt evidence before marking a payment Confirmed and refund evidence before using Refunded.
  • Repeated payment entry. Agree how the Admin checks external references before recording a payment already handled by another colleague.
