Institutions

An Institution in Optomate Touch is a third party that can be bulk-billed, for example, Medicare or The Department of Veteran Affairs.

You can enter institutions by clicking on the Institutions tile from the main menu.

When invoicing a patient you can apply a rebatable amount to be billed to an institution. Fees billed to an institution are held separately from those billed to the patient.

To receive payment from a third party institution, click on the Institutions tile then click Receive Payment in the top toolbar. If you have created a claim batch, click on the Receive Batch Payment button in order to receive payment.
