This setting determines how billing is handled for patients who are currently on admission.
When enabled, all bills generated for admitted patients are automatically approved and recorded as debt under the patient account.
How It Works
A patient is admitted into the facility.
Any services rendered during admission are billed in the system.
The system automatically approves these bills without manual authorization.
The total amount is recorded as a debt (credit balance) against the patient.
When Enabled
Bills for admitted patients are auto-approved.
No manual approval is required for inpatient charges.
All charges are accumulated as patient debt.
When Disabled
Bills must be manually approved before being finalized.
Charges may require authorization before being added to patient account.
Debt is not automatically accrued.
Note
This feature is typically used in inpatient workflows where services are continuously provided and billed during admission.
