Benefits of Health Fund Billing through Bluechip
There are many benefits to invoicing no gap invoices through Bluechip. The first is that, once the fee schedules have been entered (see above), there is no need to look up the Health Funds' fee lists every time you raise an invoice.
Another major benefit is that you can print your invoices and they will contain all of the information that you would normally have to hand-write on a claim form: Practitioner name & provider number, Service date & item number(s), Referral details, Medicare number + Medicare Ref, Health Fund number, Patient date of birth, and Hospital name & provider number.
If you are able to batch your Health Fund invoices, receipting them is extremely easy. See Batching.
Below is part of a sample invoice, showing all of the details described above.
To make the hospital and provider number appear as it does on the sample above, you create an invoice message for each hospital that you provide no-gap services at, and then apply the appropriate one to each invoice.
