To complete provider setup:

On first use of the new provider/s the HICAPS terminal will prompt the following steps to complete the provider setup.

Step 1:

Using the keypad, choose and enter a 4 digit Provider Password and press [OK]. This password will be used to lock your provider and make modifications to your provider settings.

Note:

Provider Password can not be made up of repetitive or consecutive numbers. Eg. 1234, 0000.

Step 2:

Setting up a Payee Provider Number is only required if the Medicare Bulk Billed payment is to be made to someone other than the servicing provider. Using the keypad, enter in the Payee Provider Number (only if required) and press [OK]. If the provider does not process Medicare claims press [OK] to skip this screen.

Note:

This option should be used when the servicing provider is not the practitioner who is to be paid for Medicare Bulk Billed payment.
