Billing Codes

Safe & Maximal Claim Checker

Enter the MBS item numbers you're considering billing together for the same patient on the same day. We'll flag known combination restrictions — and tell you honestly when we don't have curated rule data for an item yet, rather than assume it's safe.

Comma-separated item numbers, no patient details.

Restricted combination

At least one curated rule flags this combination — see details below.

⚠ GP standard attendance items (Level A–D) high confidence

Only one standard GP professional attendance item (Level A, B, C or D) can generally be claimed per patient, per provider, per day — even if there were multiple encounters — unless a specific, separately-itemised same-day multiple-attendance exception applies (e.g. a second, reasonably necessary and clinically distinct attendance for an unrelated problem, which has its own item requirements and notation on the claim).

high — long-standing structural MBS rule

This is decision support, not billing advice — it reflects a small, manually curated set of long-standing MBS combination rules, not a complete or live feed of every exclusion in the schedule. An item showing no rule data means we haven't curated that item yet, not that it's safe to combine — always check the current MBS descriptor (shown below when available) before billing. This tool only ever takes the item numbers you type in; it does not read, store, or have access to any practice's real claims.
