Abstract:
In 1994 the Australian Health Insurance Commission introduced MedClaims, an electronic system for submission of "direct billing" medical claims. This report contains a description of MedClaims, how it has progressed since its implementation in 1994, its current status, and future directions. To provide a complete picture of MedClaims and the environment in which it operates, this report also contains an overview of Medicare, the federally funded health insurance system in Australia.
