Multiple sclerosis is not a "deadly" or "lethal" disease. It does not kill a person like, say, stage 4 inoperable breast or colon cancer. But it can become very aggressive and debilitating at any time. I have MS and saw your question and I hope this effectively answers it. Although MS pt's don't usually die from the disease itself there is a much higher rate of suicide due to physical and mental toll this disease takes on the patient, much higher than the general public.

To examine the amounts of expected copayments in Medisoft, you would use the "Patient Payment Report" or the "Insurance Payment Report."

By analyzing these reports, you can track and manage expected copayments effectively.
