Invoice with Extended Information for Treatment Assignments

Modified on Mon, 28 Jul at 1:33 PM

When invoicing healthcare services using the EHF format, it is possible to include extended information specifically relevant for treatment assignments. This provides the recipient with a more complete data set and ensures proper documentation.


What Is an EHF Invoice with Extended Information?

An EHF invoice for treatment assignments sent from a journal system contains more information than a standard EHF invoice. This includes additional data such as:

  • Case ID

  • Treatment/Service Code

  • Date and Time of the Treatment

  • Therapist’s HPR Number (authorization)

  • Therapist’s Name

  • Therapist’s Profession

  • Diagnosis

  • Patient ID


Placement of Extended Information in the EHF Format

The data is inserted into specific XML fields in the invoice. Key placements include:
