This article will walk you through the basic steps for adding a Service Appointment for a Client. If you have a service that insurance won't pay for, you can change the appointment status to non-billable. This way you still have the service on your schedule but it will not go out to claims.
NOTE: If you use Catalyst Data Collection and are integrated you will now see your Client Appointments (read-only) in the new Catalyst App on the Student Dashboard. For more information, please see Integrated Calendar with WebABA.
