Using Treatment Plans

A treatment plan is a list of one or more procedures that the doctor has diagnosed as necessary. Typically, it is submitted to a patient and then approved by the patient. The software tracks both accepted and non-accepted treatment plans. 

A treatment plan—frequently written as Tx plan—informs a patient about what to expect: how many visits constitute the course of treatment, what is covered by insurance, and how much the patient has to pay. 

Insurance pre-determinations are generated from the patient's treatment plan.

Note:  You can create more than one treatment plan for a patient and give the patient a choice. Only one treatment plan, however, can be active at a time.
