Apply an Insurance or Patient Credit

The Manage Account screen gives you a shortcut to apply any account credit. If an insurance company or patient makes a payment over the charge amount, or a payment not associated to a specific charge an  account credit will be created. This account credit can later be applied to an outstanding charge.
