    From the overview menu, go to the Billing or eClaim section depending on your KenyaEMR version.

  • Select the Patient
    Search for the patient whose services you want to claim for.

  • Review Services Rendered
    Ensure all services provided (consultation, lab, pharmacy, etc.) are correctly recorded in the system.

Bill the items under payment method as Insurance and Generate the Claim

  • Click on Create Claim or Generate eClaim.
    The system will pull in all billable services for that patient visit.
    Validate the Claim

  • Check for any missing or incorrect information.

    You can track the status (e.g., pending, approved, rejected).
