Viewing Patient Insurance Information

   The Insurance screen displays a list of the patient's insurance plans.

   • If your office recently moved to Eyefinity Practice Management from another system, you may have some patients with incomplete insurance information due to differences between systems. These incomplete insurances cannot be used on orders or in the Appointment Calendar.

   Icons indicate the patient’s authorization status. See the box in the upper-right corner of the screen for an explanation of the icons.
