Entering Non-MBS Items into Day Surgery

Before you begin

Procedure

From within Day Surgery select the Add-Ins tab.
Then click the Advanced button and select Edit Datasets > MBS items.
Enter the Item number. This should correspond to the item number entered into Bluechip. If defining the non-MBS item in Day Surgery for the first time, the entry point is the solid black triangle. If adding to this list, the insertion point is marked with an asterisk and when working on the entry, the icon changes to a pencil.
Enter the item description.
From the dropdown list, define the service type category.
To enter a new item, press [Tab] or click in the Item field. Alternatively, click the Add New button at the bottom of the panel.
When complete, click OK.

Results

Now when the invoice data is transferred to Day Surgery at the conclusion of the invoice, the Fees tab accurately reflects the pricing to be claimed from the health fund and the services provided (as an itemised list) when reporting to the relevant authority.
