In order for this to happen, these things have to be setup in the system for the biller.

The first order of business is that the biller needs to have patient access. When the bill comes in, the patient number is usually on the first page of the bill. This number should have then been entered into the system along with the patient information. The biller will then have access to this information through what is called a patient lookup feature.
