Setting the Practitioner ID and Payee on Healthcode claims

When submitting a claim through Healthcode, two provider identifiers must be supplied:

Practitioner ID — the individual clinician who delivered the treatment (the "Controlling Specialist")
Payee — the provider who receives payment for the claim (this may be an individual, location, or business)

Both must be recognised by Healthcode for the insurer you're billing (e.g. Bupa, AXA, Aviva). Being registered with the insurer directly is not enough; Healthcode maintains its own registration for each provider and insurer combination.
If you don't know your Healthcode IDs, contact Healthcode for support.



Case 1: Billing as an individual practitioner


Practitioner ID: the clinician's Healthcode ID
Payee: the clinician's Healthcode ID (same as above)

The clinician must be registered with Healthcode for the specific insurer on the claim. If they are not, the claim will be rejected.



Case 2: Billing as an organisation or clinic

Use this when the clinic is paid by the insurer directly, rather than the individual clinician.

Practitioner ID: the treating clinician's Healthcode ID
Payee: the clinic's Healthcode ID

Choosing the Practitioner ID

The Practitioner ID should be a clinician recognised by Healthcode for electronic billing with the insurer on the claim. Bills will be rejected if this is not the case, even if your clinic is recognised by Healthcode for the insurer.

We recommend contacting Healthcode for guidance on your specific billing requirements in this case.
