Credit Controller/Scheme Linking


A Credit Controller is a Company or Individual who manages and is responsible for collecting debt and ensuring payments come in on time, at the Practice. The Credit Controller is also responsible for following up on late payments and Debtors that have missed payments. The Credit Controller will send out communication to the Debtor/Patient as a reminder that payment is due for outstanding invoices at the Practice.

Linking a Credit Controller to a Medical Aid will advise the system who is responsible for the credit control at the Practice.

GoodX has a Credit Control Assistant (CCA) which assists the Practice to manage the business processes within the Practice, that are associated with the collection of outstanding debt from Medical Aids and/or Patients. The function will be used for assisting in Credit Control/Debt collection, SMS, Emails and Cycle steps are pre-defined. The CCA keeps all communication in connection with the account of the Patient between a Patient/Medical Aid and Practice. For more information regarding the set-up of the CCA please refer to the user manual: Using the Credit Control Assistant (CCA).
