Details
- Go to Admin > Manage > Charge List and set how the specific billable service charge should appear on an invoice that you generate.
- In the relevant encounter note, add the charge for the billable service to the patient's account, making sure to edit the Base Charge amount to $0 before clicking Add Charge. This ensures that the patient is not double-charged, as they were already automatically charged the subscription amount that includes this service. The invoice will show the amount that you defined in step 1.
- Generate the insurance invoice - No need to add a payment for the visit. Print it and/or save it to share with the patient on the Patient Portal.
If you follow these steps, the charge amount shown in the patient's billing history for the item will be $0, but the insurance invoice generated will show the charge and breakdown that you specified in the relevant entry in your charge list.
