Thank you very much for your help. I was getting so frustrated and your answers help me a lot. Also, how come the provider's info don't show on the billing statement such as mailing address. Isn't that the way it supposed to be or it depends on what type of envelope you're using. I thought the doctor's mailing address should be on the statement so the patient can make payment to that address right.

If you go under the Manage Office tab, select Company Information underneath Company settings. The second tab, which is Statement Header Information, is where you can enter what you want to appear on your billing statements.

Then when you pull your billing statements, choose Billing Options. Here you can choose which statement form to use.
I think 04 & 05 have a part on the bottom that the patient can cut off and include in an envelope with the practice's address already in place.

You can play around with the different forms - there are 13 different ones and see which one would work best for your office.

If you plan on charging a % make sure you aren't in a state with a fee splitting law.

Actually, I am in Florida and there is a fee splitting law. I'm still a little confused about the law. Is it illegal for billing companies to charge a percentage or is it just illegal for doctors to get into a contract that charge a percentage.

That's kind of a "moot" question because while it is illegal for providers to enter into a fee-splitting arrangement, why would you 1) want to put a provider in an illegal situation knowing they would be subject to heavy sanctions and 2) basically create a NULL void contractual situation. If you go to court you have NO contract (Null/Void)
