Why are there Affiliate records

Though there can be dozens of Aetna records in the Insurances Module, the parent company, or "Affiliate" is still Aetna, or “A”.  When you create your reports you could group all Aetna related charges, payments and adjustments under one affiliate. You assign an insurance carrier to an Affiliate in the Billing Information section in the Insurances Module.
