Electronic data interchange for service providers
SWICA is involved in digitalisation initiatives within healthcare and supports industry standards for electronic data interchange (EDI). The objective of EDI is to exchange relevant data via electronic interfaces in a standardised, machine-readable format, in order to drive forward process automation. This is intended to cut costs and to speed up and simplify processes.
Electronic invoicing
SWICA allows you, the service provider, to issue electronic invoices using the tiers payant (TP) system. This means that SWICA settles your invoices directly and claims back any co-payments from the patient. This brings a number of advantages:
- System-based invoicing is cheaper than using the postal system.
- SWICA tends to pay invoices faster and bears the collection risk in relation to patients.
- There are efficient communication channels in place between the payer and the service provider.
Are you interested in securing these advantages for your organisation? You will find further details about getting started and the invoicing process below.
