- To navigate to the ledger, hover over the Billing header and select Patient Balance Ledger. As with other screens in DrChrono, you have several options to view the information.
In the patient balance ledger, your options include:
2. Claim Type - If institutional claims are enabled for your account, you will see the claim type option. You can use it to select between institutional or professional claims or both. If you do not have institutional claims enabled, you will not see this option.
3. Patient - You can search for a specific patient.
4. Date range - You can select a specific date of service or date range.
Once you have your selections chosen, click on the blue Load button for the information to populate. You also have the option to export the information to a file that will be available in your message center.
