Schedules are used to manage Medicare Benefits Scheme (MBS), Dept. of Veterans Affairs (DVA), Health Fund and Third Party fee schedules. Schedules can be assigned to Practices and Providers.
*NOTE: Custom schedules need to be assigned to specific users to be usable on an invoice. Please click here for our guide on how to assign a Schedule.
New fee schedules can also be created using the below methods:
MBS Derived - Uses the MBS item codes and fee schedule with a fixed margin (either dollar value or percentage) on top of the MBS fee.
MBS Custom - Uses the MBS item codes, however each item is assigned a custom fee.
Third Party - Uses the item codes and fee schedule from a Third Party providers fee schedule.
Custom - A custom fee schedule with unique item codes, unrelated to either the MBS or a Third Party fee schedule
This tutorial will cover how to create and edit both an MBS Derived Schedule, and a Custom Schedule which can have custom items added to it.
