"Since moving on to Direct CONTROL, I can see so much improvement in my Practice day-to-day workflow" ... Orthopaedic Surgeon
"Have been looking for several years for the right package .... I have found it"... Anaesthetist
We’ve had Direct CONTROL for a little
over three weeks. And I love it!
Having only worked in the medical field for three months I was finding
the whole switch over to Medicare rather daunting. Direct CONTROL staff
have
been just wonderful and the support is the best. This programme does
everything I want it to and is easy and simple to use. I’m having so
much fun finding out all the new little things that it does and it
constantly surprises me with its capabilities. Our psychological
practice is looking and feeling far more professional.

Direct CONTROL has successfully passed Integration Testing for patient claiming. This means that in the next release you will be able to either:
-
receive full payment from the patient for In-Room services and the patient will receive the rebate back into their bank account, or
-
take the Out-Of-Pocket (GAP) and Medicare will still send the patient a cheque made out to you but should the patient not send it to you, Medicare will Direct Deposit your account after 90 days. This has only been available to GPs until now.
