# Item Master

The **Item Master** screen allows healthcare facilities to add items (services, procedures, etc) and link them to the clinic.

{% hint style="info" %}
[**Service Master**](/uniteemr/master-modules/items/service-master.md) and **Item Master** both allow adding items. "Service Master" supports adding one item at a time, while "Item Master" allows adding multiple items at once.

For bulk import of items and price details, use the[ **Price Master**](/uniteemr/master-modules/items/price-master.md) screen to avoid extra steps when adding and grouping items in a price list.
{% endhint %}
