Aged Care
Providers
/aged-care?tab=providers7 stepsProviders and purchase orders lists the third-party providers you broker services from, and the purchase orders that cap what each one can bill for a participant over a set period. Administrators use it before approving supplier invoices.
Step by step
- 1
Select Add a provider and enter the provider name, ABN, contact name, email and phone. Keep these details current as providers change.
- 2
Check each provider's ABN in the Providers register against their invoice before you raise an order or approve anything for payment.
- 3
Select Raise a purchase order. Choose the participant and provider, then enter the Purchase order number, the Service type and the Amount authorised.
- 4
Set the Effective from and Effective to dates, then select Create purchase order. The provider cannot bill more than the amount authorised against the order.
- 5
Watch Allocated, Utilised and Balance in the Purchase orders register. An order turns amber once more than 80% is used and red once it is billed past the amount.
- 6
Read the footer for the totals across all orders and how many have been billed past the amount authorised.
- 7
Raise a new order before an old one runs out or ends, so the provider's next invoice still has an active order to match.
