Applying for additional Payment Numbers


If you want to join more than one Data Centre Numbers you will need to apply for additional payment numbers. To receive an additional number complete the Application for Additional Payment Number form and mail or fax it to the address indicated on it. You can contact your rep at support@clinicaid.ca to receive a approved copy of the form.


Applying for a Data Centre Number and Enrolling with Teleplan


ClinicAid and OSCAR billing are built to connect to the BC Ministry of Health’s Teleplan electronic file transmission system. In order to connect your account to Teleplan you will need to have your payee number (most often your MSP number) connected to a Teleplan data centre number. There are two options for this:


  1. connect your payee number to your own data centre number
  2. connect your payee number to our data centre number


To establish MSP Teleplan setup by establishing your own data centre practitioners must apply through the Application for Teleplan Service HLTH 2771. To complete this form practitioners must previously have a practitioner number or submit a Practitioner Registration Form HLTH 2848 to receive their practitioner number. Practitioners will have to submit the Agreement with MSP for MSP to pay money directly to them rather than their patients. An Application for direct bank deposit from MSP HLTH 2832 must also be submitted to enable direct deposit.

 

Claims can be submitted for services that were performed at different locations under the same Data Centre. Forms can be submitted by fax or by email.
