The MediBILL system utilises printing masks and plain paper to produce bills / invoices, reminder notices in multiple formats in a single print run on a single printer.

The site can design their own stationery which may be A5, A4, landscape or portrait, in colour or greyscale and single or multiple pages.

"Notional" bills may be raised for internal cost management and "Institutional" bills are produced for any referring entity. These bills may be printed or downloaded electronically.

MediBILL is able to provide electronic interfaces with any organisation providing download and receipting facilities (e.g. Medicare, TAC, Health Funds).

All batches can be re-printed at any time in the event of printer failure. Electronically downloaded bills can be resent if necessary.

MEDICARE & REPATRIATION BILLING

MediBILL assembles separate batches of 50 for ALL SERVICE PROVIDERS and sends all data electronically.

All unbilled accounts of the account type selected are sorted into Payee Provider + Service Provider order. All un-transmitted claims are available to automatically send to MEDICARE.

• A pop-up list box displays the available claims to download.
  
  
• Single claims may also be re-sent.
  
  
• A confirmation screen summarises the claim selections showing the total claim count and the total value.
  
  
• The program sends the MEDICARE formatted claim to the MEDICARE service.

If there are any errors detected by the local MEDICARE processes, then an immediate error is reported. Otherwise, a message is printed to indicate no immediate errors.

All Medicare & Repatriation monies are received electronically and all EFT payments are automatically applied.

Receipt "Exceptions" are handled in user-selected ways or are automatically managed by the MediBILL program.
