How do I create & assign a profile?
You can create multiple billing profiles to your account by enabling the feature as follows:

When you first login, you will also experience a new column when selecting a physician, allowing you to know which Billing Profile is currently assigned.

When you navigate to one of your settings, select the Billing Profile you like to apply. The specific settings you configure will only apply to the Billing Profile you have chosen.
