Medical Billing and Compliance for Psychologists

Welcome to this short course for Australian Psychologists who bill using Medicare.

The course is designed as a quick overview with some helpful tips to get you started billing correctly. However, it is imperative that you understand the law, because Medicare is public money, and there are criminal sanctions for non-compliance. It is important to get it right and we are here to help.

When it comes to legally correct Medicare billing, it is usually more important to understand how to bill, rather than just what to bill.
