Info

The Create Person page is comprised of two tabs:

The Person Information tab is used to configure or modify the general information for a person. It collects the name and address, personal information, and employer information of the person. Creating person from the page/tab creates a person record only. To create an account and person record, create the person from the Create Account / Person Information tab.

Note
When you create a person from File > New > Person option, the guarantor account is not automatically created until a case is entered and a guarantor is assigned on the case. You cannot enter payments for a patient unless the charge has been entered, because an account has not yet been created for that patient.
