On invoicing for the Surgeon, you can also bill for the Assistant Fee. However, if so, you can no longer transmit this claim to Medicare/Health Fund. Assistant Billing needs to have their own invoice. 

Assistants entered here can be selected on the Theatre Booking and printed on Theatre Lists as well as the Informed Financial Consent (IFC) and/or Invoice.

They can also be selected in The CONTROL Centre to auto populate detail on the Informed Financial Consent (IFC) and/or Invoice.

The correct Assistant item code and values are calculated on the IFC and/or Invoice based on the specialty of the Referrer (General Surgeon, Specialist, Ophthalmologist, O&G).

If adding the Assistant to the Surgeon invoice, then Assistant Billing is reported in Report - Assistants. 

• Select Contact Management - Assistants
• Select Add or press [ALT+A] to add an Assistant.
• Select Delete to delete an Assistant noting that if they have been referenced in DCM, you cannot delete.
