Personal support, not just claim submission
Your fee pays for the work behind the claim.
Our premium service combines inpatient billing experience with careful preparation and ongoing administrative follow-up. You have a direct point of contact, rather than another task to manage yourself.
- Before lodgement: supplied service and provider details are reviewed, with missing information raised for clarification.
- After lodgement: claim responses are monitored and rejected or delayed items receive appropriate follow-up.
- At reconciliation: available payment information is checked against claims and unresolved items are identified.

Why Inpatient Is Different
More moving parts than a standard consult claim
Inpatient episodes can involve multiple services, Medicare, private health insurers and other payer arrangements depending on the circumstances.
The applicable claiming pathway, billing information, time limits and assessment requirements depend on the service, patient, provider and payer. Claims therefore need to be prepared and followed up against the rules that apply to the individual episode.
A dedicated inpatient billing workflow can help keep the administrative process organised while the treating practitioner remains responsible for the clinical services and billing information supplied or authorised.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you log into my practice’s software to do the billing?
No. DEVZ Solutions does not provide remote billing within your billing or patient-management software. We use our own secure, Medicare- and ECLIPSE-compliant billing software. You securely send us your inpatient lists and relevant billing details; you do not provide your software login.
How do I send my inpatient lists and billing details?
We agree the secure transfer method with you during onboarding. You then securely send us your inpatient lists and the relevant patient, provider, service and billing details. Please do not include patient information in public enquiry forms or general email or WhatsApp enquiries.
Do you support practices outside Melbourne?
Yes. Based in Melbourne, DEVZ Solutions serves specialists across Australia. You securely send us your inpatient details, and we bill using our own software without remotely accessing your practice systems.
What does your 3.5% fee mean?
Our service fee is 3.5% of billings processed, plus GST, invoiced monthly. This is equivalent to 3.85% including GST. Registration or onboarding assistance may incur a separate fee where required.
Do you handle both Medicare and private health fund claims?
Yes. We prepare and lodge eligible Medicare and private health insurance claims using our own secure, Medicare- and ECLIPSE-compliant billing software, based on the inpatient details and billing instructions you securely supply.
How do I get paid — does money go through you first?
Medicare and health fund payments go directly to your nominated bank account. DEVZ does not receive, hold or pool your medical income.
