Patient Payment Plans: Skipping a payment

Skip-A-Payment | Nizari Credit Union

If your patient is on a monthly payment plan and needs to skip a payment, DrChrono makes it easy to document while keeping the integrity of the payment plan. If your office approves the skipped monthly payment, 1 click within the patient's chart will move the payment to be skipped to the end of the payment period.

Here is how to do it:

  • Access your patient's chart and click on the OnPatient Payments tab

  • Please make sure you are on the correct payment row to be skipped, and press the Skip button. This will move the payment to the end of the repayment period.

  • The skipped payment's status will update to Skipped, and the Action section will gray out. The skipped payment will be added to the end of the repayment period.
