As we move into an era where financial transactions are increasingly carried out electronically – Debit and Credit Cards, PayPal, mobile phone etc – it is not surprising that the private health industry is also looking at ways to become more electronic. Bupa Health Funding is asking all consultants to invoice electronically, so now is the time to look at how you can bill all insurers electronically.
Don’t worry there are big benefits to you!! It means no postage costs, it means your invoices are processed far more promptly and no longer will invoices to insurers be “Lost” in the post! Do not forget that sending a duplicate for a lost invoice will end up costing you £1 in postage alone not to mention the time wasted raising it!
Whether you (or your secretary) want to continue to carry out all of your invoicing (do it yourself) and you’re looking for a software solution or you think that now is the time to find someone to take that billing hassle off your hands (get someone else to do it) PHF have the best solution.
Many consultants are already enjoying the benefits of billing Bupa and other insurers electronically. It is simple and efficient for you and your practice and the insurers.
