    I want to enter a number and have it look for the price next to that number and....

    I work in med billing. We have contract rate with our providers. And i have an excel spread of the fee schedule. On the fee schedule there are 5 columns.
    sniip 001.jpg
    one for the year, CPT code, modifier, Rate, desription.

    Simple enough but some of these spreadsheet have as many as 10000 lines.

    is there a function or formula or template someone might be able to help me with so i can...

    enter cpt in column A, enter units in column B, from it number in column A - Column C will find the corresponding number on a another sheet in the book look at the rate two columns over.

    So if enter "88305" in column A the formula will look at the other sheet and fill column C with the matching fee to 88305?

    I apologize if my terms aren't correct but I still have a lot left to learn about excel.

    I think you should just be able to do this with an Index Match or a Vlookup. Would need to know specifics to write for you however.

    Can you explain what specifics would you need? Again pretty new to excel aside from simple math formulas

    If this helps...

    The graphic above is the whole spread sheet only its 1500 lines long.

    lets call it "sheetZero" in the work book this is locked and will only be the reference

    There would be a "ENTRY Sheet 001" would appear blank.
    I would enter HCPCS number in box A4, box C4 would populate with the corresponding RATE of the matching HCPCS# on "SheetZero"
    down the length on the sheet as needed

    I hope that make it clearer. Please tell me if it doesn't.

    Place in C4

    Note, formatting of the cell C4 will show the result as a whole number. ie 0002U will look like "25". Format to Currency to correct.

    It did seem to work. I copied it in a adjusted the sheet name to reflect but it just says

    "#N/A"

    if there are 1532 line on the original schedule would that effect the code?

    Re: I want to enter a number and have it look for the price next to that number and....

    I got it to work kind of. I realized there were to extra column that were hidden so I adjusted it a deleted those.
    But what it appears to be doing is looking the the exact location and displaying that rate. that corresponds to
    that box I am enter geographically if that makes sense.

    I would like to it be able to display whatever numberI punch in. so if I punch 3 random HCPCS codes it will display
    their price not just the ones that corresponds geographically. But I need it to display the corresponding rate no
    matter which HCPCS number I punch in column A.

    Right now no matter where i put the codes this is displayed. I played with the code a bit to try to manipulate it a
    bit as i said earlier my excel knowledge is amateur at best


    Again you help is much appreciated and I finally figured out how to attach the file to the post if that helps

    also if someone figures the fix. I respectfully request please just post the formula as I can not download files from websites deemed unsecured by our IT Overlords.

    Try pasting the following formula into cell C4 on Sheet 2:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    This is weird. Some will some won't. I type some in I get the number, I type others it get "#N/A", I copy and paste number the populate right i type the exact same number under I get "#N/A"

    It to like codes with letters and be more picky about codes that are all number. It is possible for an excel formula to be a tempermental jerk?

    Selecting the attachment in post #10 results in the following message: "Invalid Attachment specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator". Please attach files as you did in post #7.
    That said I believe that the reason typing numeric codes doesn't work is because the values in column B of Sheet 1 are text. I have converted the numeric values to numbers and was able to type in 80048 and 80051 and get results.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
