How to activate Medipass

Overview

Core Practice has integrated with Medipass healthcare software to help healthcare providers get paid fast. To learn more, visit the Medipass website.

How does the integration work?
Core Practice's integration with Medipass gives you a payment system that isn't reliant on a physical terminal. This enables the ability to make Medicare and Healthfund claims from a mobile service. Patients will be able to make secure payments on their mobile phones via the Medipass website and have a backup payment system if your HICAPS terminal is down.
