Before you configure this benefit, read the description and perform the required tasks that are listed in Benefits.

Procedure

1. In the header of Dev Studio, click Launch web interface > Product Development.
2. In the left navigation panel of your work space, click New > Benefit.
3. Click New.
4. In the Name field, enter PRO-Speech Therapy.
5. In the Effective date field, enter 1/1/2019, and in the End date field, enter 12/31/9999.
   This end date means that the benefit might be in use indefinitely. By manually entering 9999 for the year, you do not have to continually update the end date.

8. Click Add Purpose and Alias names. In the Purpose field, click Sales and in the Name field, enter a meaningful name for the benefit that the individuals in the business area understand, for example, Speech Therapy.

    1. In the Definition list, select Service Group and click Add definition.

13. In the Code group field, enter H2192 and select it from the list.

15. Click Generate Description to list the benefit description based on the codes that you selected.
16. Click Continue.
17. In the Enter notes step of the wizard, click the SBC Benefits Description tab, and enter PRO-Speech Therapy benefit is required. Then click Continue.
