Billing: About Client Billing in Patient Chart

The Billing tab in Patient Chart displays a client’s invoices, estimates, payment history, account credit history, and other billing events.

In the Patient Chart banner, the Billing tab displays a ‘DUE’ indicator when an invoice is Open (not finalized) or Due (finalized but unpaid) for any of the client’s patients.
