Use your own PRODA

Certification in progress

Praxi is completing Services Australia conformance testing for Medicare Online Claiming. Production claiming becomes available once Services Australia grants the Notice of Integration (NOI). This page describes how the workflow operates so your practice can prepare; we will update it when certification completes.

Choose this path if your practice needs to send claims under its own PRODA organisation and manage its own device renewals. With Praxi's PRODA, Praxi manages that connection for you and you do not need your own PRODA account.

Start with Set up Medicare. Choose Use your own PRODA instead in Before you start. Keep following the wizard; this page explains only the two extra steps.

Save your PRODA organisation​

  1. Open Your PRODA organisation after Locations.
  2. Enter your PRODA organisation RA number from Organisation details in PRODA.
  3. Save it before downloading your HW027 forms. Your organisation's RA number belongs in question 3 on this path.

Connect Praxi in PRODA​

Complete this step after Services Australia processes each practitioner's HW027.

  1. Open Connect Praxi in PRODA in the wizard.
  2. Open PRODA and follow the displayed path: Organisation details > Service Provider > Add > Medicare Online / ECLIPSE / DVA / AIR. This is PRODA's service name.
  3. Link each Location ID. For further IDs, use Manage relationships > Add new identifier. Accept the terms and answer No to PKI.
  4. Register one B2B device in PRODA. Enter the activation code PRODA gives you into Praxi using Activate device within 60 minutes. If it expires, register again.
  5. Select Check connection in Praxi.
  6. Return to each HW027 and select Confirm processing and link only after checking that Services Australia processed that specific form and you linked its location in PRODA.
  7. Finish Check and go live. A connection test does not replace the consenting-client check at each location.

Keep your device renewed​

Renew your own PRODA device every 6 months. Owners receive expiry reminders; your practice remains responsible for renewal. Return to the connection step and use Activate a new device when a replacement is needed.

Change your claiming path later​

Open Settings > Medicare > PRODA & claiming > How claims are sent. Choose Praxi's PRODA, Your own PRODA or Tyro, then confirm Change and continue. Praxi keeps your existing setup and opens the steps the new path needs. See Change how your practice claims.
