Itemized Bill Headers and Footers

Itemized Bills (Encounter Bills) have a standard Remittance Header and Default Footer.

The standard Remittance Header includes the following:

• Make Checks Payable To shows practice name and address
  Note: This section is replaced with a practice or company logo if imported from the File > Tools > Image Explorer.
• Addressee shows guarantor name and address
• If Paying by Credit Card shows the transaction information.
• Remit To shows practice name and address

The standard Default Footer includes the following information:

• Account Number, Charges, Payments, Refunds/Adjustments, Insurance Balance, Patient Balance
• Message: Default footer message from Practice Preferences > Itemized Bills
• Please Pay This Amount
• Payment Due Upon Receipt banner
• ENCOUNTER INVOICE
• Page n of n

By default, the remittance header and default footer print on every page for itemized bill. This increases the number of pages printed, particularly for practices that have encounters with many charges and transactions resulting in multi-page itemized bills.

Whether the standard header and footer print on every page for multi-page itemized bills can be controlled by selecting Display Remittance header on first page only and Display default footer on last page only in Practice Preferences > Forms.
