PRODA error 0831 when linking providers to GPACI patients
02 Oct 2024
The Department of Health and Aged Care (DoHAC) has received confirmation from Services Australia this is a new error. It has come to their attention through the help desk as well as through PHNs and they are working with the systems team on a fix.
The fix is expected to go live in December. In the interim, the explanation is:
-
- The 0831 warning displays when a provider is not eligible for the full period the incentive indicator is assigned to the patient. Please note, this is not an error and does not restrict the ability for a practice to add an incentive indicator or assign a responsible provider.
- As this is only a warning message, the user can continue by selecting ‘confirm’ again after the message appears to proceed with linking/adding the responsible provider.
- Operators may also have to select ‘save’ twice.
- Services Australia will be releasing updated wording for the 0831 warning message this week to help alleviate confusion.
SWSPHN will circulate any further advice from Services Australia once received.
