Partical's FastClaim for HIC Online enables medical practices to take full advantage of the HIC Online billing initiative. Partical can be your vital online medical partner, ensuring far less time is spent waiting for Medicare cheques, recovering bad debts or resubmitting incorrectly filled out Medicare claims. Partical has designed the FastClaim online system to electronically link your medical practice with Medicare to enable fast, accurate and secure processing of your claims.

This 'stand alone application' will not require upgrading of your existing Practice Management System (PMS). You won't have to worry about purchasing new hardware, data transfer from your existing system to a new one, or costly and unproductive downtime.

FastClaim is also ideal for those practices that do not operate an electronic PMS. All that is required to take advantage of online claiming is a computer connected to the Internet, via Internet Explorer. A permanent link (broadband or otherwise) although preferred, is not essential - a standard dial-up account with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) is sufficient. If you currently don't have Internet access, Partical can help you to select the best Internet solution for your requirements.

Once you are connected to the Internet you simply log on to the FastClaim system, fill out the patient details and claim information, and submit with the click of a button. The processing is simple, automatic and immediate. With the FastClaim flexibility and crosschecking ability, there is almost no way to make an error. Should any information be entered incorrectly, such as a wrong or incomplete Medicare number, a message will immediately notify you of the problem, allowing you to make the corrections on the spot. This means no inadvertent rejections and, more importantly, no delays in payment.
