Depending on the your office preferences, you may prefer the invoice billing provider and treatment provider to be associated with the patient or with the type of invoice you are entering.
Some practices might require the use of two billing providers for two different practice locations, while other practices may need two billing providers for different types of claims.
Each patient is automatically assigned a billing provider and treatment location based on the first invoice entered for the patient. This information is stored in the BILLING tab of the slide out window of the Personal Information screen. You can easily change these if necessary.
When you use Auto-Entry Invoices, if you would like to use the billing provider assigned to the patient on each invoice, select "Patient" in the Invoice Preferences where it says "Auto Invoice uses Billing Provider & Location from:"
If you want to always use the Billing Provider and Treatment Location used on the Auto Invoice, select "Auto Invoice."
This way, KIP helps to make sure the correct billing information is on each claim - and saves you steps in the process.
