Payers are organizations or individuals that pay for the healthcare supplied to the patient. These organizations or individuals can be: facilities or people who financially guarantee or who are responsible for the patient (such as parents or guardians of minors), organizations with direct financial responsibility, combinations of these or the patient themselves.

Purpose

Recording the information of the paying authorities and people serves to simplify payment of the fees for the supplied care and to provide insight in advance on how these fees are to be paid, especially when it comes to non-insured healthcare.
