How to claim to AIR -
To add an immunisation to a patient profile, go to the patient's Clinical tab and then Immunisations.
Once an immunisation has been added to a patient's clinical record, a claim for the vaccine used is automatically sent to the AIR Claiming dashboard. Claiming vaccines on the Australian Immunisation Register is very similar to Medicare claiming.

To open the AIR claiming dashboard, go to Accounts > AIR - Claiming.
The AIR Claiming dashboard has two primary sections - Not Transmitted and Completed. Each of these sections will be covered individually in this tutorial.
