Adding claim notes

Claim notes allow you to record relevant insurance information directly in the claim’s history. This is helpful for logging events such as reaching out to an insurance payer or contacting a client for follow-up. 

To add a claim note:

  1. Navigate to the claim
  2. Click Claim Details

All notes added to a claim will be saved in the Claim Notes tab, along with the date and time they were added.

Information that’s helpful to store in this tab includes: 

  • Follow-up calls to the payer
  • Contact information for the payer, such as the phone number and name of the representative you spoke with
  • Claim processing updates

Claim notes can be edited and deleted. However, if a claim is deleted, its notes will be lost. Claim notes can’t be exported, so if you’re deleting a claim and would like to save its notes, we recommend recording that information separately and saving it to the client’s file.
