- TP Date Since: Only include patients who have a dated treatment plan on or after a specified date.
- Ins Month Start: Filter the list by when a patient's insurance year begins.
Note:
- The default is Calendar Year.
- For cases where the insurance begins mid-year, we recommend running the report monthly. (For example, select November to find patients whose benefits expire on November 1st.)
- If January is set as an insurance plan's start month, this is not the same as calendar year. To include those patients in the treatment finder report, you must select January as the Ins Month Start.
- Amount remaining over: Only include patients that have a specific amount of insurance remaining. Results will include patients whose Amt Rem plus Amt Pend is over the amount, and patients who have no annual max.
- Provider: The default option is All which includes all providers (including hidden providers). From the drop down menu select to only include patients with a specific primary provider.

Note: When connected via
Middle Tier you will not be able to run the report for All clinics.
