    Are you making it easy or hard to be paid?

    If you get the basics right many problems with getting paid aren’t allowed to happen. The basics mean the absolute minimum and mandatory requirements in order to present an account for your services. The basics are as follows:

    Patient’s full name

    Patient’s full address

    Patient’s post code

    Patient’s date of birth

    Policy number of the insurance company concerned

    Pre-authorisation number issued by the insurance company

    Correct CCSD code

    But it doesn’t stop there.

    Your invoice should always have on it:

    Your name and address

    Your provider number

    A unique invoice number

    The date of the invoice

    The date of the treatment / consultation

    The right CCSD code

    A value!

    14 points. But if you don’t get all 14 on your invoices you make it harder for the insurance company to pay you!

    If anybody wants a blank invoice that does satisfy ALL the above, go to the freebies tab on this website! If you are billing electronically – and you should be – you’ll still need the vast majority of the 14 points.

    But the proof of the pudding is very much in the eating. Have a guess at what are the TWO major reasons an insurnace company does NOT pay your invoice?

    1. you haven’t sent one (crazy but true)

    2. you haven’t included the right information.
