You can have multiple accounts alternate billed to another account.

Facility Billing

In addition to creating claims to third party insurance, PiMS fulfills the requirements of billing business-to-business requirements. PiMS creates patient accounts with automatic charge posting that are automatically alternately billed on a facility account for creating monthly and on demand invoices. If sales tax is part of the requirements on services provided, up to five sales tax rates are provided and six tax categories. Each tax rate and category is defined by your business structure.

With facility billing, multiple types of contracts are supported including fee for service, monthly flat fee, daily fee, minimum, maximum, multiple locations and ranges. There are options to set so that you can bill the facility, bill for the facility and bill patient insurance. The facility billing is seamlessly integrated with PiMS Scheduling with its facility location option. Facility billing is solid with the necessary requirements, which meets the need for multiple accounts receivables and nationwide billing and invoicing.
