DESCRIPTION: This parameter defines the type of information to be displayed on the patient statement for RX
copays. Some patients may want to have very detailed information about any RX copay charges on
their statement, while others may require brief information. This parameter will be the default
for ALL patients and will define the amount of information displayed on the patient statement.
A second related parameter can be defined for each patient that will over-ride this site parameter.
For example, if a site decides to have all their patients receive 'brief' information for RX copay
charges, then this parameter should be set to 'BRIEF'. However, a particular patient may request
more detailed information, in which case, this parameter should remain as BRIEF and the parameter
for the patient should be set to DETAILED.

patient may have had activity during a particular month that has left the account balance at zero

inform the patient on a patient statement. This information, even though the account balance is
zero, is printed to confirm the payment was applied correctly and also for reimbursement and
'proof' of payment to insurance companies.
However, some sites may wish not to print these statements and provide the information on a
'as-needed' basis.

action to resolve the problem. If the process does not run to completion, certain events that must
occur may have not be run to completion.
