Register, Edit and Assign Insurance Companies
Stratus OCT enables you to create and edit insurance company records and assign them to
patient records. Besides its record-keeping function, once you assign insurance companies
to patient records, you can search for patients by insurance company during export and
retrieve. See Advanced Search on page 7-2 for more information.
Note: Insurance company names are case-sensitive, which affects their uniqueness
in searching for them. For example, “Prudential” and “prudential” would be treated
as different names.
