Add a New Client

Adding a new client is a quick task:

  • At the top right of any screen, click the button
  • Select Client from the drop-down:

From here, you can create your new client.

  • Ensure the correct initial provider is selected at the top (or multiple)
    • Selecting multiple providers means all those providers will have access to this client

  • Optional: Upload a Photo ID & let our machine learning pull the name, address, and date of birth

    Less typing for you!

  • Enter your basic client information here
  • You can always add or edit this information later

Minimum Requirements:
