Step 1: In the top right region of your account, click on the [Gift Card] icon.

    • Patient Groups: (optional): If this patient needs to be assigned to an existing Patient Group, select the correct group from the drop-down menu. 

    • Assign a Drip-Ed™ Campaign: (optional) We highly recommend you use this feature to continue to educate and market to your patient. Campaign Start Date is the date you want the Drip-Ed™ Campaign you selected to start.  By default, today’s date is pre-selected.

    • Auto-Debit Groups™: (optional) If this payment needs to be assigned to an existing Auto-Debit group, select the correct group from the drop-down menu.

    • Care Plan Options: (optional) If this is a payment for an existing cash plan created with the Cash Plan Calculator® System, indicate the payment option (i.e. Option 1, 2, or 3).  This will keep your stats more accurate.
