Sometimes electronic claims do not process properly if there is a secondary insurance submitted on the claim.
This does not happen with all clearinghouses and all claims, but if you find you an instance where you want to simply submit the selected insurance as the only carrier on the claim, check the HIDE OTHERS box on the invoice.
It is well known that marketing within your own patient database is effective.
KIP makes sure your correct billing provider and treatment location are on each claim.
Depending on the your office preferences, you may prefer the invoice billing provider and treatment provider to be associated with the patient or with the type of invoice you are entering.
Some practices might require the use of two billing providers for two different practice locations, while other practices may need two billing providers for different types of claims.
Each patient is automatically assigned a billing provider and treatment location based on the first invoice entered for the patient. This information is stored in the BILLING tab of the slide out window of the Personal Information screen. You can easily change these if necessary. (more…)

You can take patient photos using Photo Booth on the Mac, and drag the images directly to the KIP patient window.
Photo Booth in Mac OS 10.6.8 (and newer) is able to select which camera you use to take photos, and it is also more stable in dragging directly from Photo Booth into KIP.
If you have difficulties dragging photos directly from Photo Booth into KIP, try dragging the photo to your desktop and then from the desktop into KIP.
After dragging the photo into the patient window, you may delete the photo file on your computer, if desired. The photo is stored within the KIP data file. (more…)
You can have many types of files on your computer that are related to a specific patient. File types can be varied and can include:
– a scan of a driver’s license, insurance card, or EOB
– an image of a patient’s x-ray
– a scan of an exam form, letter, or lab results
– a photo of a wound
– a pre-operative photo or a photo of a post-operative result
– a video of a patient encounter
– an audio file of a patient conversation (more…)
Patient information can come in many forms. They can be images, text documents, or even movies.
KIP allows you to store these files and associate them with a patient.
For example, you scan the patient’s driver’s license and save it as an image file. Now, you can store this image in KIP and have it accessible anywhere on the network. The network can even be a remote site if you have remote access set up.
You can associate any type of file with a patient. If the file can be on your computer, you can associate that file with a specific patient. When you choose to view the file, the file opens using the program associated with that file. (more…)
