Managing insurance benefits and coverages

To make the process of assigning insurance easier, a database of insurance companies is compiled as you enter them. Most insurance carriers provide patients with a schedule of benefits to declare the maximum annual benefits for the individual and for the entire family. The schedule of benefits also includes deductible amounts and plan maximums.

Note: Updating any benefit and coverage information will affect all patients who subscribe to the selected group plan.
