Accounts Receivable (AR)
The Kroll Accounts Receivable module allows users to manage patient Charge Accounts. This allows customers to charge prescription and non-prescription items (as determined at store level) to an account to be invoiced at a later date. A statement is then generated and show invoices in the specified time period and are sent out to the customer on a regular basis, as determined by the pharmacy.
Any invoices that remain unpaid and are carried forward from one statement to the next are subject to finance charges under the discretion of the pharmacy. An invoice may contain more than one item and a payment made by the customer may be applied to one or more invoices. Likewise, one invoice may have a number of payments applied to it. To have all charges for each family member consolidated into one statement and forwarded to a designated payor, there is a `Bill to' option. This eliminates several statements for each family from being generated.
