Check whether a patient bill is understandable and complete.

Added October 15, 2026. Written with AI assistance and checked for clarity and placeholders; not reviewed by a lawyer, accountant, clinician or other professional. How these prompts are made

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it (what [VERIFY] means).

Audit a patient statement. The statement layout and text with invented numbers: [STATEMENT_TEXT]. Questions patients often ask: [COMMON_QUESTIONS]. Payment options offered: [PAYMENT_OPTIONS].

Check whether the statement shows dates of service, descriptions in plain words, charges, insurance payments and adjustments, patient responsibility, due date, how to pay, how to ask questions, and assistance options. Compute whether the totals add up with the arithmetic. Make a table with Item, Present, Clear, and Fix. Rewrite the statement summary box and a cover note of under 120 words. Check reading level by average sentence length. Recommend a test with five patients or staff members.

Administrative review only; no clinical content. Mark billing communication rules [VERIFY].

Add a worked summary box: charges 640.00, insurance paid 410.00, adjustments 150.00, you owe 80.00 due 15 April (640 - 410 - 150 = 80), and a sentence for who to call. Compare sentence lengths before and after rewriting a paragraph from 31 words to two sentences of 14.
