Insurance Plans

With proper security rights, System Administrators can manage a list of insurance plans available for use in the system. Insurance Plans can be found under the Control Panel. For more information on how insurance plans are used in the registration and patient demographics see additional help labeled Insurance Summary in Demographics Tab.

There are different levels of security that can be assigned to specific security roles and should be considered when adding or modifying system controls. The Manage Insurance Plans security role setting only applies to the Insurance Plans manager under the Control Panel. This setting does not apply to the ability to add an insurance plan to a patient chart. This security is only for managing the master list of insurance plans utilized by staff.
