DA: Electronic Remittance Advice for Online Patient Payments
ERA: Electronic Remittance Advice is a way of importing receipts captured by the Medical Aids against Debtors or cases into GoodX in a structured way.
Payments made on the MYGC portal will be sent back in an ERA.
These ERA's do not emanate from Medical Aids. These ERA's accompany pay overs after patients submit online payments resulting from receiving payment links from the practice/business.
TAKE NOTE: Paymentlink ERA's will post as Patient Receipts. In order to use the Payment link ERA function, it needs to be set up in Supervisor Settings:
Payment link ERA Options:
- From the Navigator >> click on Supervisor >> System Options >> EDI Tab >> Paymentlink eRA
- Payment link eRA Cashbook:
- The correct eRA Cashbook needs to be set up for the Payment link payments. If the specific casebook is not selected, the default cashbook (KAS 11) will be selected.
- Click on the '3 dots' button in the Payment link eRA Cashbook field to select the correct cashbook for the payment link receipts.
- Select the KAS 12 Cashbook which, in this case, is the Payment link eRA Cashbook.
- Click on OK
TAKE NOTE: If the Cashbook for the Payment link eRA is not set up yet, you need to FIRST create the Cashbook. Follow the link Opening/Adding of a Cashbook to see step by step instruction on How to Add a new Cashbook.
- Payment link ERA Journal Costing Debtor:
- The cost of the payout will come through as a journal in the era, this will be moved to the costing debtor and posted as an unlinked receipt.
- Click on Save to save the Settings in Supervisor before closing the Supervisor screen.
- Debtors >> Batch Transactions >> Remittance Advice Manager
Payment link ERA's will have their own type, PMTLNK.
