Dear All,
This is from India. Here most of the patient came to a Hospital may not have insurance. That mean they will pay their hospital bill their own.
In OpenEMR we can use the Checkout option of Fees menu for collecting cash from each patient who dont have insurance. Could some clarify my understandings are correct?

Shihab;
That is correct. You can print an Invoice/Receipt using the form generated from Charges. If they pay in full at the time of visit, you would enter that as their Copay and you are done. Alternatively, once you have created the encounter and fee sheet (see my instruction set for same), you can handle the accounting via the Collections Report and select the "Invoice" which will show the PatientID : EncounterID as a code, and links to the EOB/Invoice like the EOB in the Billing module.
