Create a HealthPoint Quote

Creating a quote allows proposed services to be sent via Tyro HealthPoint to a client’s health fund, to establish the rebate to be paid against the service(s). The rebate amount is correct at the time of submission and is subject to change. Creating a quote for a client to send to a health fund can give the client an estimate of the gap they will be required to pay for a particular service.

Before you start

All quotes must be sent for a single:

  • Practitioner,
  • Modality,
  • Service date. This is automatically set to the date that the quote is submitted.

Multiple appointments or items that occur on the same day can be sent on the same quote to a maximum of 16 items.

A quote is submitted in the same way as a claim, but is Rejected by the client after swiping their health fund card. When the claim is rejected by the patient, the rebate and loyalty details for the items are saved and the claim is set to a status that is disregarded by the health funds. If a quote is accidentally accepted, Bp Allied will automatically send a cancellation of the claim to ensure it is not paid.

TIP  See Create and Send a HealthPoint Claim

There are two methods to create a quote:

  • From an appointment via the right-click menu, select Create Quote.
  • From the Invoices toolbar, click Create Quote.

Quote numbering

Quote numbers are based on the same numbering as used by invoices. If Invoice Number per Location is enabled, the quote number will be based on the Location selected.

A Quote is displayed in the transaction grid in the Invoice screen with the Q marker in the Type column.
