Managing and reconciling provincial (AHCIP) claims (Alberta)
Updated over a week ago

You manage and reconcile provincial (AHCIP) bills through the Billing dashboard. Here, you can filter your clinic's list of bills to display:

  • Attention Required bills (bills that are refused, are flagged by the CHR as containing errors, or are partially paid or paid at zero)

  • Submitted bills that have not received a response from AHCIP

  • Held bills

  • Completed bills (bills that are paid in full)

From this list, you can edit and resubmit a bill or update a bill's status.

📌 Note: You can also export billing reports or billing data from the Billing dashboard for reporting purposes or to transfer the data into another application. See Exporting billing reports from the Billing dashboard.

1. From the main menu, click Billing. The Billing dashboard opens with a list of bills created today.
