        It would be helpful to have another field for Insurance Subscriber Information. In this field there should be options to select a patient record or enter new subscriber information. This way we are not creating additional files.

        We always create a separate "mom" first & last name-followed by (Insurance Only) to indicate that there are more than one account, and to be sure never to post treatment or anything to the "insurance only" or "payment only" type patients. It is a fantastic idea to be able to attach to a patient already in practice with out having to have them on the account!

        Yes agreed! There are also adult children covered by parent's ins that are on their own accounts. With one family we had to add the same person to 3 of their grown children's accounts. I don't like the mutiple inactive accounts for one person!

        This is a huge issue and I would love for it to be resolved. Its kinda old fashioned to think that a family is a mom, dad, and children and the only way children can be insured is if the resposible party lives at the same residence. That is not how life works. Please fix this!
