Invoicing an admission

Invoicing an admission

Hospital admissions can be billed in two different ways

1. Via the patient admission Screen after the discharge
2. Via Uninvoiced Admissions tab in Dashboard - Please refer to Invoicing via Uninvoiced Admissions for instructions on How to perform this.

Once admission has been discharged, the user can generate an Invoice from the Admission.

 You can also see any already linked invoices from the Admission > Admissions History display - if the billed flag is set to Yes then an Invoice exists.

You can raise (link) both Hospital and Medicare Invoices on an Admission.

Invoices linked to an Admission will display as:

• Hospital Invoices – these are for claims specifically related to procedures, accommodation, etc
• Medical Invoices - These are claims by the doctor delivered whilst the patient was admitted and not services delivered directly by the hospital. Please refer to Medical Invoices on Hospital Admissions for more information.
