Simply fill out the MPPA Billing Registration form and email it to us as per the instructions on the form, along with a list of providers to be linked to your billing entity(s).

If your registration meets our criteria, we will contact you to discuss potential arrangements.

How to make an MPPA claim

At Medibank and ahm we acknowledge that, in accordance with your billing policies, you may choose to charge our members an out-of-pocket expense for pathology or diagnostic imaging services when they are admitted into hospital. If this is the case, we expect that you will provide our members with a written estimate of fees for each hospital admission and they must give their agreement to any out-of-pocket costs.

For scheduled admissions, this should happen at the earliest opportunity before the admission. For all other admissions, this should happen as soon after the admission as circumstances reasonably allow.
