Adding a Payer or Updating the Payer Address In DrChrono

In DrChrono, you can add a payer or change the payer address, if needed.

A payer could be an insurance company, auto accident insurance,  workers' compensation plan, or durable medical equipment carrier that pays a patient's claim.   A large list of payers is loaded into the system, but if you do not find the one you need, you can create it by following the steps below.


Please note - payers added this way will transmit to the payer via paper. The payer ID created through this method begins with PRNT, EPRNT, and HPRNT, all indicating the claim will be mailed to the payer.
