A system for generating a billing report for rendered services includes local and remote processing devices. The local processing device is located locally with respect to a location at which the services are rendered and the remote-processing device (103) is located remotely with respect to such location. The local and remote processsing devices (103) execute respective software programs and communicate in a particular manner over a wide area computer network (107) (e.g., the Internet) such that a service provider using the local processing device can access the remote processing device (103) and enter parameters related to the service (e.g., service codes) for use in generating the billing report. Entry of the parameters preferably occurs substantially during the time period when the services are being rendered and the parameters are preferably acceptable to a third party that is at least partially responsible for payment for the services. The remote-processing device (103) preferably verifies compliance of the entered parameters with reporting requirements of the third party and, if the entered parameters comply, generates the billing report based on the entered parameters. |
