Patient Multiple Address for Linked Contract Patients
The Patient Multiple Address (Patient > Search Patient > Patient Profile) feature is available for Linked Contract Patients. Multiple addresses can be entered for a Patient and assigned to be used for GPS coordinates. In the address selection, values include Primary Address, Allow GPS Address, and Billing Address as described in the table below.
Note: Only Providers with Payer-granted permissions can edit a Patient’s Address(es).
Address Type |
Description |
Primary |
Unique for each Patient and required for the Patient Profile. The Primary Address is stored in the Patient Profile. At-least one Primary Address must be defined. |
Allow GPS |
(Optional) Can be selected for multiple addresses. This is the address used if GPS is the chosen modality to clock in/out (from this address). |
Billing |
For Payers using the Multi-Rate functionality, the Billing address is used to determine the rate for a given Patient.
Note: The Allow Provider to Update Patient Billing Address option on the Payer system controls whether a Provider can edit the address that has been designated as the billing address. |
Patient Multi-Address Section
With the proper permissions granted by a Payer, Providers can update a Patient’s address to include adding an Address Note. To add Notes to a specific address, click the Add link in the Notes column for a specific address. Enter a note in the Notes field and click the Save button.
