Discounts

Bluechip allows you to offer a conditional discount to your patients, which might be seen as an incentive to settle their debts quickly. This is done by offering a percentage discount off the cost of the invoice, provided that the debt is settled within a given number of days. A typical scenario might be to offer a discount of 10% if the debt is paid within 7 days. This then rewards patients who pay their debts quickly, but enables you to still charge the full fee to patients who pay outside the stipulated period.

A discount is offered when you create an invoice, as explained below. You cannot offer a discount when raising invoices to send to Medicare.
