MailMyStatements™ (MMS) is an integration that ChiroFusion offers that allows you to send them your statement file and they will take care of the printing and mailing of your statements. Once the statements are sent, you will be able to see on the STATEMENT TRACKING tab if those statements were sent successfully.

There is no need to log into your MailMyStatements™ account directly as everything is managed within your ChiroFusion account.
