Hi Peggy,

Payers are supported, and the example you likely found (following
link) is a working example.

http://code.google.com/apis/health/ccrg_reference.html#payers

The payer information will need to be in its own area (Body/Payers),
and we presently don't have a way to link other information
(procedures, results, medications, etc.) to payers.  Is this what
you'd like to accomplish?

For payer name and phone number, you can include these in the actor
section like in the example below.  This isn't apparent in our
documentation; thanks for pointing it out!

Paul
