1.  Brief Description

1.1  Introduction

This document defines messaging and communication standards for the electronic transfer of patient register information between Organisations and HealthPAC.

The requirements for transmitting these registers have been divided into 2 implementation phases. This standard falls into the second phase of the project, and covers transmission of patient registers for Capitation Based Funding. The first stage is to check with HealthPAC that you are eligible to claim the Capitation Based Funding subsidy. To enquire about or request an information pack on Capitation Based Funding, please contact HealthPAC Contact Centre on 0800 252 464, which is to be operational from 20th August 2002. Calls before this time please call Donna Harrison on (04) 381 5300.
