Medicare Configuration - Uploading Certificates
This Medicare Configuration guide will show you how to upload your Medicare Sites Certificates into MediRecords.
Prerequisites:
- Your Medicare Certificate files
- (fac_encrypt.p12
- fac_sign.p12)
- PIC (Personal Identification Code) for above Medicare Certificates
NOTE: If you no longer have access to these certificates, contact Medicare directly on 1800 700 199 and request your PKI certificates to be re-issued. These certificates are a requirement and we cannot use the certificates loaded onto your server.
To upload your certificates, navigate to the top of the page and click More to reveal a drop-down list.
Click Settings to open the settings menu.
Click Configuration Settings.
On the following page, click the Name of the Practice to open the configuration settings.
Click Claiming to open the claiming configuration form.
Click PIC and type in your Medicare Personal Identification Code that you would have received in a letter after you received your certificates.
Navigate to P12 Certificate File (encrypt), and click Select File to open a file explorer window.
Navigate to the folder where your Medicare certificates are located, and select the file called fac_encrypt.p12 for upload.
Click Upload File to upload the certificate.
Once the certificate has been uploaded, there will be a message "100% done" next to it.
Navigate to P12 Certificate File (sign), and click Select File to open a file explorer window.
Navigate to the folder where your Medicare certificates are located, and select the file called fac_sign.p12 for upload.
Click Upload File to upload the certificate.
Once the certificate has been uploaded, there will be a message "100% done" next to it.
Click Activate Medicare PCS to reveal a drop-down list, and click Yes (this activates Patient Claims Store & Forward).
Check the form, and make sure you have filled in data for the Medicare Pass-Phrase, uploaded certificates for P12 Certificate File (encrypt) and P12 Certificate File (sign), and Activate Medicare PCS is set to Yes.
*Note: Please wait at least two weeks before automating claims and reports. A MediRecords technician will be in contact with you to remind you to do this.
Once you have completed the check, click Save to apply the changes.
Once the claiming configuration has been saved, the system will automatically populate the Medicare - Sender field with the sender information. The Sender information is stored in your Medicare Certificate.
