MedAdvisor does not currently have the ability to handle Repatriation VX numbers as the system is designed to use a Medicare card number as a direct link to your patients history. We understand that many Repat patients do not carry a Medicare card whilst visiting your pharmacy. To overcome this, pharmacists are able to obtain a patients Medicare number phoning Medicare Australia on 132290.
MedAdvisor are currently in discussions to allow VX numbers to be accepted as a unique identifier in proposed future releases of medAdvisor.
