Which statement about the Write-Off Payer option is true?

• A. It posts according to the contract.
• B. It posts according to the payer.
• C. It posts based on patient input.
• D. It is deprecated.

Answer: (B)

Write-Off Payer determines which payer's rules govern how a write-off is posted. With this setting in place, the system applies the write-off based on the chosen payer's allowances and contract terms, so the write-off aligns with that payer's responsibility. This is why the correct statement is that it posts according to the payer—the payer’s terms drive the posting. It isn’t driven by patient input, and it’s not a deprecated feature.
