NDIS Payment Reconciliation Function
This new feature will enable you to simply upload the Proda Payment Summary file in its current format, straight into Careview, via the Reconcile Payment system function. This function will compare the invoice data provided in the file, against the invoices in Careview using both the NDIS Number and Claim Reference (Invoice Number) fields.
Once it has finished processing it will update the Invoice Status, using one of the new Invoice Statuses below, in the Service Entry screen. Dependent on the Tolerance Setting, Proda Payment Summary File Paid Invoice Total and Payment Request Status.
Fully Reconciled – Ready for Provider Payment
Part Paid – Requires Reconciliation
Claim Errors
Note: The Delivered Service Record status will remain at Extracted, where the Invoice Status has changed to one of the abovementioned Invoice Statuses.
Additionally this function will provide a Report to easily identify any errors and part payments in the reconciliation results. So you may take the appropriate action within the Service Entry function, to fully reconcile your Invoices.
Important Note
Please do not make any changes to the Proda Payment Summary File and ensure you save it in its current CSV File Type.
