Marley Health - Appointment Type

You can create masters for various types of Appointments. Appointment Type allows you to predefine the duration of the appointment, specify whether it's inpatient, and set colors to differentiate between different Appointment Types for analysis.

1. How to Create an Appointment Type

To Create an Appointment Type, go to:

Home > Healthcare > Consultation Setup > Appointment Type

1. Enter the "Type".
2. You can configure the Appointment Type to book appointment for Practitioner / Department / Service unit by selecting "Allow Booking For"
3. Set the Default Duration (In Mins) so that when the Appointment Type is selected in Patient Appointment, the duration gets set automatically.
4. You can also set a color for each Appointment Type.

The color will help you identify the appointments of a particular type in the Calendar view.

2 Features

2.1 Medical Department / Service Unit wise Billing Items and Charges

From version 13 onwards, you can set up department-wise appointment/consultation charges in the Appointment Type.

If you want to set generic default charges and billing items, irrespective of any department, you can add a record in the Appointment Type Service Items table with no department selected.

Also, if you have selected Service Unit as the option in "Allow Booking For" field then you should be able to select a Service Unit in the child table instead of Medical Department
