This report tracks patient balances and aging. It defaults to run for all Billing Types, all Providers – simply uncheck to customize your report options.

If you’ve set the pay plan logic in your Account Module Preferences to Age Credits and Debits, payment plan due amounts are included in the A/R balance, and will be reflected in the Aging of A/R report described above.
From here you can also update tracking status for many claims at once or delegate claim follow-up to specific staff members.
TECH TIP: If you have patients whose accounts are overdue and you want to prevent any further scheduling until their balances are reduced or paid in full, you can set up Automation to restrict patient scheduling.
The Aging of A/R report lists guarantors who owe the office money. It is based on the guarantor's billing type, primary provider and clinic. Aging is automatically recalculated when the report is generated.
Answer: If Line Item Payment Plans is not turned on, payment plans are not part of individual account balances and therefore not part of the practice balance , which is the A/R. Every time you create a payment plan you are making a loan and reducing your A/R. Likewise, payments attached to a payment plan do not change your A/R, but do affect production and income.
No selection: Only include patients with positive balances. Insurance estimates and no balance: Include patients with a balance of zero, but also have an insurance estimate. Only Patients With: Select only patients who match selected criteria. Negative balances: Only show patients who have a negative balance (credit).
Family (default): Group by family, listed by guarantor.
If payment plans were converted, you will need to account for payment plan due balances in the A/R. If pay plan logic is Age Credits and Debits, these amounts are reflected in the A/R balance. If not, run the Payment Plans Report instead.
When grouped by individual , the user will need to manually include patients with negative balances and insurance estimates if desired. This is required if you want an itemized family breakdown (see below).
If pay plan logic is Age Credits and Debits, payment plan due amounts are included in the A/R balance. ( Account Module Preferences)
