# How to Add a Walk-In Patient
#### Here's How to Do It
From the [Appointments](https://insights.athelas.com/v2/appointments) page, click Walk-In Patient.
A popup will let you choose either Existing Patient or New Patient. If it’s an existing patient, simply select them from the drop-down menu and ensure their information is up to date.
If it's a new patient, enter all their information. There’s a toggle at the bottom of the form to acknowledge accuracy and consistency with your EHR, so **be sure to update your EHR as well**.
Click Next.
The Create Appointment form will appear for you to fill. Select a Facility, Provider, and Appointment Date/Time.
Click Next.
An automatic eligibility check will run and display a result—Active, Inactive, or Inconclusive. In cases of Inactive or Inconclusive insurance, you can double check that the information entered is correct or move on to the payment page.
Click Next.
You’ll see a popup like the one below, with options for various methods of payment.
You can also choose to request payment later and simply view the new appointment in the [Appointments](https://insights.athelas.com/v2/appointments) page.
For quick access, simply click Filter > Patient and start typing the patient’s name.
Congratulations, you’ve added the patient to your appointments!
