How to set up HPOS access

Steps to set up access to HPOS as an individual

1.  

   1. Register for an individual PRODA account

   You need an individual PRODA account to access HPOS. PRODA is an online authentication system we use to verify your identity so that you can access government online services.

   4. If needed, link to your organisation's PRODA account

   You can access some HPOS functions as a member of an organisation. You may need to do this if you don’t have a Medicare Provider Number, or if your organisation needs to keep records to claim incentives.

   Your administrator needs to set up your organisation’s PRODA account. Then they can add you as a member. They will need your Registration Authority (RA) number to do this. You can find your RA number under My details tab in your PRODA account.
