Hi. I have a question for a good method of booking healthcare expenses. I had found some information ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/16RKEl1NJ3qg8VU9vKRRvgIv3CyGs0_4ASS4lD5iBFTw/edit#heading=h.k8gf9rm4lopl ) but the part for tracking deductible, co-payments here is not finished and the person mentions this """ I carry this out using the “mirror accounting” technique I describe in another document. The idea is to use an alternative currency to count for these amounts.""" Is the only way to do this is using alternative currencies? I would like to try to avoid this.
My issue looks something like this. ; detailed paper Refund: 20.78 EUR Honorarium : 26.78 EUR Deductible: 6.00 EUR Payed: 29.00 EUR Copayment: 8.22 EUR Day of service/Day of payment; no information about individual parts Real Payed: 29.00 EUR ;payed from account Day of certificate; information about parts Refund: 20.78 EUR ; refund from insurance Honorarium : 26.78 EUR ; salary doctor Deductible: 6.00 EUR ; tracking deductible for insurance per year Payed: 29.00 EUR ; total cost Copayment: 8.22 EUR ; personal cost Day of reimbursement; deposit on account Refund: 20.78 EUR ------------------------------------------------------- 2019-10-30 * "Dental"; day of service Activa:Account -29.00 EUR Expenses:Health:Medical:Claims 29.00 EUR 2019-10-31 * "Dental"; day of certificate Expenses:Health:Medical:ClaimsPayment -20.78 EUR ;savings Expenses:Health:Medical:Copayment (8.22-6.00) EUR Expenses:Health:Medical:Deductible 6.00 EUR Liabilities:Medical:Payed -8.22 EUR Liabilities:Medical-Refund 20.78 EUR 2019-12-27 * "Dental"; day of reimbursement Activa:Account 20.78 EUR Liabilities:Medical-Refund -20.78 EUR Just not sure how I would structure the transaction on 2019-10-31 if I want to split up between copayment and deductible. I could just leave it out and track what my total personal cost was and be it reflected in the top account of "Expenses:Health:Medical" but I would like to track both if possible instead of just doing the following. 2019-10-31 * "Dental"; day of certificate Expenses:Health:Medical:ClaimsPayment -20.78 EUR ;savings Liabilities:Medical-Refund 20.78 EUR -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
