• Key Concepts: 
  A facility fee is a charge that is applied to a patient's bill for the use of a healthcare facility. It is typically charged in addition to the cost of medical services and is used to cover the costs of operating the facility, such as utilities, maintenance, and staff salaries. In SAP for Healthcare (IS-H), facility fees are managed through the Facility Fee Management (FFM) module. 
  
  How to Use it: 
  The FFM module allows healthcare providers to set up and manage facility fees for their patients. It allows users to define different fee types, such as flat fees or percentage-based fees, and assign them to specific services or departments. The module also provides tools for tracking and reporting on facility fee payments. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up facility fees in FFM, it is important to ensure that the fees are compliant with local regulations and that they are clearly communicated to patients. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update the fees in order to ensure that they remain accurate and up-to-date.
