To add a new organization to the partner, choose Add Organization. To edit an existing organization, select the organization from the list. The Organization Configuration screen is shown the edit the attributes of an organization. The breadcrumb at the top allows you to return to the partner. The name of the organization and a color-coded Account Status label are also displayed. The screen is broken up into 7 tabs:

Account Status
The Account Status reflects the current status of the organization. It supports the same values as the Account Status for a partner: Active, Inactive, Suspended and Archived. To edit an organization’s status, choose Edit Account Status in the upper right. The Account Status dialog will appear.
Figure 183 - Edit Organization Account Status
The supported account status values for a partner and their purpose are outlined below:
Status | Description |
Active | Organization is active and ready to start processing bills and allowing users to login |
Inactive | Users will not be allowed to login, search/pay bills, Dunning communications do not go out, Admin Resend is disabled and Recon is not generated. |
Suspended | Initial status of a new organization; good for allowing completion of configuration before partner is onboarded and active in our system. Also should be used when offboarding to stop new payments but continue to Recon. Users will not be allowed to login, search/pay bills, and Dunning communication will stop. However, Settlement/Funding and Recon generation will continue. |
Archived | Organization is no longer active and marked for archive and permanent removal from PatientPay. Users will not be allowed to login, search/pay bills, Dunning communications do not go out, Admin Resend is disabled and Recon is not generated. |
If a user attempts to login to Admin or the Patient Portal (via secure bill link or bill code) and the organization Account Status = Inactive or Archived, they will receive the following message: “Access is denied. Please contact your provider.”
