THE Department of Health has announced that the backlog of claims on the Sixth Community Pharmacy Agreement (6CPA) Registration and Claiming Portal is being addressed and has summarised their status, identifying the payment timings.
The department says the delays are due to the implementation of system changes to accommodate new claiming requirements implemented from 01 Feb 2018, but extra resources have been put in place and the 6CPA team "continues to be dedicated to clearing the backlog as quickly as possible".
Payments for claims (including the payment made on Tue 12 Jun) will include the following claims:
