- In the Sidekick, locate the patient.
- Within the Sidekick, click Profile.
- In the Profile module, within the Other Information section, click the Default Fee Guide drop-down menu.
- In the the Default Fee Guide drop-down list, click the applicable fee guide.
- The patient's default fee guide is now updated.
Note: It is recommended to set the patient's default fee guide to the office's current fee guide.
Note: After the patient's default fee guide is changed, only appointments and treatment plans that are created after the patient's default fee guide is changed will use the updated fee guide. Existing appointments and treatment plans will remain using the default fee guide that was assigned to the patient at the time these appointments and treatment plans were created. If the cost of a fee for an existing appointment or treatment plan is to be revised according to the updated default fee guide, the fees in the previous fee guide will need to be manually revised. For instructions regarding how to update the cost of a fee in a fee guide, refer to the quick guide, Editing a Fee Guide.
