7 | Procedure code not found, service line 1 was not added Encounter cannot be created with service line errors | The listed Billing code in column “O” is missing, incorrectly entered, does not match the current CPT procedure codes, or is a custom code not yet entered into Kareo. | Start by manually correct billing code on the export, then re uploading the failed lines as a unique batch.
