There's a lot to say and it's an involved topic (especially with in-network and out-of-network differences), I can't do it right now (I'll write a doc at some point, I started writing something here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16RKEl1NJ3qg8VU9vKRRvgIv3CyGs0_4ASS4lD5iBFTw/edit?usp=sharing but it's not quite finished yet, needs review), but one quick thing I'd mention is you should use a links to tie together these transactions, so you can use the "bean-doctor linked ..." to view them together.
Something like this provides some ideas (for a US context with private insurance): ;;; accounting/blais.beancount:49452: ;;; ;;; 2015-10-01 * "KLEIN" "Cleaning, X-ray, Oral evaluation.
