How do I bill patients from other provinces?
All other provinces, except Quebec, are handled by OHIP in claim type RMB. RMB = Reciprocal Medical Billing.In addition, HYPEMedical may recognize the number as belonging to another province. In this case the province will be picked along with the Claim type as RMB, automatically by HYPEMedical. Otherwise please enter the information yourself.
If your data entry options in HYPEMedical allow for omitting last and first names then please ensure their inclusion. Unlike OHIP billing, RMB must include last and first names.
