GoodX Manage for Hospitals

Fixed Fees refer to pre-determined pricing packages for specific medical procedures and treatments. By setting up Fixed Fees, users are able to create billing codes that cover the entire procedure, simplifying the billing process by using a single code associated with a fixed price. The fixed price is determined by the Hospital for Private Patients or by the Medical Scheme for Patients covered by Medical Aid.
