This refers to your agreement with the patient as to how much of your fee the patient is responsible to pay each month. The system default is 100%. Life Systems Software recommends that this be left at 100% in the Account Type catalog. The only time to change it is on an individual basis with those specific patients that require a payment arrangement that is less than the full balance due. This option gives you the ability to set the patient’s minimum payment as shown on each monthly billing statement as a percentage of the balance due or as a specific dollar amount.
