Doctors are settled once the procedure/consultation has been completed, through an invoice sent to Athena. Payments to doctors are done on Tuesday's and Thursday's every week.
There is no impact on the Doctor if a patient doesn’t pay Athena back. You still get paid. Athena takes the risk of approving and collecting payments from the patient.
As little effort as possible. Just offer Athena as a payment option to your patient. If Athena approves, your Practice will be notified.
