Pay To/Billing Locations

Pay To/Billing Locations

Set up Pay To/Billing Locations

This is your Physical Address and Remit Address.

  • Set up your Physical Address as your Billing Location where services are rendered. This is the physical address that the Payer has on record.
  • If you have a PO Box where remits/checks are sent from the Payer, you will need to set up a Pay To Address as well.

The Location ID will be used in the Billing/Rendering Provider Library to link the Provider to the correct Pay To/Billing Location.


  1. Select Libraries from the left menu.
  2. Select Pay To/Billing Locations button.

  1. The Facility on the attached Reference Batch, if a Facility has been designated
  2. The Pay To/Billing Address that has been selected using this setting
  3. The corporate Practice Address on record (call Support to have this addressed changed)
  • Use for the NPI displayed on the Patient Ledger: The NPI on the selected Pay To record will be used for the Patient Ledger Report.
