Remove Insurance from All Employees
Employer/Insurance information is entered on the Patient Information screen.
A patient’s insurance information may change for a number of reasons, such as a new employer or new plan with same employer.
If the employer has changed the insurance company for ALL employees, you will click on the Un-Link icon on the Employer/Insurance Plan Information screen. Note: If you only want to remove the employer from a specific patient and their family members, you will click on the Un-Link icon at the Employer field on their Patient Information screen.
Note: The Supervisor can assign rights modify employer, insurance and group linking when setting up login names and passwords.
Follow these steps if the employer no longer offers insurance and you want to remove insurance from ALL employees.
Note: This will affect ALL employees linked to this employer and is used ONLY when permanently removing insurance coverage for the employer.
