What is the Ezyclaim system?

Innovative focus

At HBA, we understand that as a doctor your primary focus is the well-being of your patients. That's why we introduced an innovative no or known gap billing system, known as Ezyclaim.

Ezyclaim eliminates or reduces the gap paid by your patients when they are hospitalized.

Ezyclaim provides you with the certainty of receiving your fee, saving time and reducing paperwork through an easy to use claims system.

During the 10 years it has existed, thousands of doctors have already taken advantage of the Ezyclaim billing system. HBA has paid over 2,000,000 Ezyclaims, benefiting more than 12,000 members every month, who have received in-hospital medical services and paid nothing extra.

Ezyclaims can be lodged electronically using Eclipse. Eclipse is a secure information processing system that uses the internet to link Medicare Australia, health funds and doctors.
