Master paragraphs are used in billing to add explanatory text to task codes. They can be set up as options that users can select from a list or they can be inserted as free-form descriptions of an item on the bill.

Like bill templates, master paragraphs are configured by your systems administrator and are a way of customising bills to different client and practice scenarios. Most practices develop their own library of master paragraphs best suited to their billing requirements. Only users with administrator permissions may add and delete master paragraphs.

  1. Select Maintenance > Documents > Master Paragraphs on the main menu or Maintenance > Maintenance Map > Documents > Master Paragraphs. The Master Paragraphs page opens.
