E-Signatures for Credit Card Transactions

How are you all handling a patient's electronic signature for credit card transactions?
It's time for me to move away from printing these and storing the paper version.
What do you guys use?
Is there a thread somewhere? I wasn't having any luck on the search engine.
Thanks

Re: Referred Procedures & Completion

We called support and they showed us how to mark it at completed by other provider, however, then it changes the date of the original referral and the documentation of that referral gets erased. In other words, if I refer for RCT on 9/11/17 the graphic shows as orange If endo gets completed on 09/12...

Re: Query for Insurance and Employer

That worked great. Thank you. Is there a tutorial on how to write these queries? Cuz now I'd like to take it one step further... Can that report give me how many patients are covered by that employer? And can I make it list only active patients? I'd love to be able to know how to write these... Thanks

Query for Insurance and Employer

I'm looking to run a report that shows who the employers are for a particular insurance.

For example, which employers have Metlife as their carrier. I've tried a few different query examples but no dice.

Any ideas?

eConfirmation for new additions?

Hello,
I currently have my eConfirmations set up to confirm 10 days out. But, let's say a patient gets added to the schedule a few days later. Is there a way to send an econfirmation to them? I know it won't be automated but isn't there a way to manually shoot them that text / email?
