HearAid  keeps separate HSP fee schedules for each year. This facilitates claim preparation and reconciliation and allows you to set different co-payment fees for partially-subsidised clients, including partially-subsidised DVA clients.

Each year, HearSoft Pty Ltd makes an update script available on our web site at www.hearsoft.com.au/downloads.htm to assist our clients in maintaining their fee and item lists. Maintenance Fees for top-up (including DVA top-up) clients are not prescribed by HSP, but if your practice levies an additional fees for those clients, the fees should be entered here
