Medicare Provider Numbers due 1 December, AKT/KFP webinar recording, Start preparing for exams – new webpage and complete the Member Engagement Survey and WIN!

Your RACGP update – 15 November 2023

Have you submitted your Medicare Provider Number (MPN) paperwork?

All MPN paperwork needs to be submitted by Friday 1 December (close of business)

You received the Medicare Provider Number (MPN) application from the RACGP via email once your placement was confirmed (cc practice manager). The subject of this email is ‘term papers for signing’.

Steps to be taken:

Registrar completes page 1 of the MPN application.
Registrar shows page 2 of the MPN application to the Practice Manager (for 2024.1 placement), to ensure that all practice details are correct.
Registrar signs and dates form (page 2).
Registrar returns all 3 pages of the MPN paperwork to AGPTApprovedPlacement@racgp.org.au (including paperwork for any additional sites eg VMO, after hours site etc)
It’s important that the paperwork submitted is high quality.

Please note: We cannot guarantee that provider number paperwork received after Friday 1 December will have a provider number issued prior to the start of the 2024.1 semester.

Please contact your training coordinator with any questions.
