DNFB (Discharged Not Final Billed)
The dollar value of completed encounters that have been discharged but not yet finalized and billed - usually because they're waiting to be coded.
Every day a chart sits in DNFB is a day revenue isn't in the bank. It's often expressed as 'DNFB days' (DNFB dollars รท average daily revenue). A rising DNFB almost always signals a coding bottleneck.
Many organizations target under 5 DNFB days.
