With the Post-Appointment Payments feature, staff can...

  • Send a bill to a patient so the clinic can receive payment promptly

  • Automatically release files after the fee has been paid

  • See what bills are paid and unpaid to ensure collection

  • Send a payment reminder

  • Filter unpaid invoices to block patients with outstanding balances from booking

The sections are as follows:
