During a given day there will be many interactions with the data kept in the TFM database. Some data items have many options (i.e. procedure codes). TFM has provided the Configuration mechanism to setup many of these items. You simply enter your configuration items and TFM will use them throughout the application, simplifying your day-to-day task by providing just the data you enter.
There are several chapters in this document that discuss the various configuration options. Here are the different configuration options:
| Configure:  | Providers  | Payers  | Facility  |
|   | Procedure Codes  | Procedure Modifiers  | ICD-9 Codes  |
|   | Service Place  | Service Type  | Biller  |
The Configuration menu is shown below. In addition to the menu options listed above and documented in this chapter, if a valid Scheduler license is installed, the Weekly Office Hours and Schedule Reserved Times menu options are also available. The associated screens for both of these are documented in the Scheduler chapter.
