Entering Patient Information

The second tab on the manual entry form contains the insured and/or patient information.

The patient information tab describes a Subscriber and/or dependent.

1.The subscriber is set as the patient by default. But if the patient is a dependent to the insured, then another tab with the dependent information will become visible.
