Can some one help me knowing where the “Type” field in the insurance company details when you add an insurance company gets stored? Which tables relates the insurance company to whether it is " Medicare" , Workmen comensation". othe HCFA etc. In which table I can find the details. I know that the names and cms id are getting stored in insurance_company while address gets to the " addresses" table. Where does the type go? Please help me.

Thanks

Hi,

The payer type in the Insurance_company form is populated from freeb_type_array (Refer library/classes/InsuranceCompany.class.php) and it is not stored/populated from DB table.

When we save an insurance_company, it affects 2 tables, as said insurance_companies and addresses.  The “Payer Type” is recorded in the “freeb_type” column, with the FREEB_TYPE_XXX constants said in the above file.
