It’s likely that your patients are receiving different amounts of coverage and have been prescribed treatment plans that are unique to them. One of medical billing software’s strengths is its ability to track funding maximums.

You ‘re actually able to log the dollar amount of treatment they’ll be covered for whether it is divided by visits, units, or a lump sum.
