# OpenHIE Finance and Insurance Service (FIS)

Finance and Insurance Service stores, categorizes, and facilitates the administration of centralised claims and finance related data to care provision to patients within the HIE. The service receives claims/financial data from Point of Service applications (including financing applications acting as a point of service interface outside of other PoS systems) and curates the management of them.
