Resubmitting Medicare Easyclaim Bulk-Bill Claims

Pracsoft User Guide

Should you need to resubmit a Medicare Easyclaim transaction, click on the Medicare Easyclaim Transaction Details window.

If a transaction needs to be resubmitted because of an exception, this should be performed via the Resolve Exceptions window instead.

The original Medicare Easyclaim transaction will be resubmitted and a new visit record will be created with the details from the original claim. You can then re-transmit the Medicare Easyclaim request by pressing in the Record Visit window and follow the normal Medicare Easyclaim Bulk Bill process.

Note: Easyclaim transactions with a status of 'Receipted Off', 'No Benefit Payable' or 'Resubmitted' cannot be resubmitted and will not be visible from the Medicare Easyclaim Transaction Details window.

Easyclaim Transaction Status

The following information describes the various Easyclaim Transaction states, and how to deal with them, where applicable. The status of Easyclaim Transactions is available within Pracsoft via Processing > Receipt Bulk Payments > Easyclaim.

Transmitted	The Easyclaim transaction has been transmitted to Medicare and the Bulk Bill Integrated Reports have not yet been requested. The user will need to request Processing/Payment Reports at a later time.

The Bulk Bill Integrated Report will need to be re-requested at a later date once Medicare has finished processing the claim. The user will need to request Processing/Payment Reports at a later time.
Exceptions	The Bulk Bill Integrated report has been retrieved and exceptions were returned for the Easyclaim transaction in the report. Exceptions need to be resolved (i.e. accepted or resubmitted) before continuing. This requires 'Resolve Exceptions' processing.
