This report, along with the Patient Transactions Detail Report, is commonly used to explain a patient's financial history with the practice to them. Note that the Patient Transactions Detail Report provides more information, though each practice can determine which version is more appropriate for such a patient request.
This report provides current outstanding balances (insurance and patient) similar to the patient’s statement and is typically what patients are looking for when requesting for a financial ledger.
