  2. Under Actions, click Add Ledger Comment. The Create Ledger Comment window is displayed.

  3. Select a date for the comment. The date defaults to today's date, but you can select a date in the past or future.

  1. Select Display this comment on statements and account history, if appropriate.

  2. Click Create.

You can click on a ledger comment in the patient's ledger at any time to expand it and access additional options. You can edit or remove the comment, as well as change the statement/account history setting. 

To change whether the comment appears on statements and account histories, click Will or Will Not

Note:  A payment plan  icon is displayed at the top of a patient's ledger if the patient has one or more active payment plans.
