A Medicare Location ID allows Medicare to identify your practice location as a Halaxy software user.
You are required to have an active and verified Location ID for your practice location/s to be able to:
-
Submit claims for Medicare, bulk bill and DVA, and ECLIPSE
-
Request access to eRx to create electronic prescriptions (e-scripts)
After you have requested a Medicare Location ID and it has been activated, you must verify it before you can perform any of the actions listed above.
Note
Verifying a Medicare Location ID only needs to be performed once.
You verify your Location ID by successfully verifying a patient's Medicare or DVA card details. (You can do this for any patient from the location who has Medicare or DVA card details entered in their profile.)
You can perform a quick verification in any of these areas:
-
-
Go to the patient's profile and click the Funding tab.
-
Under the Claims and Referrals section, click the relevant funding body (Medicare or DVA) to expand it.
-
Click the
Unverified icon next to the card number for the patient.
-
Once the patient's details are verified, the icon will change to a
Verified icon.
