Healthcare providers and WPA
At WPA, we provide access to the sort of healthcare that we want for ourselves and our families.
We recognise the importance of freedom of choice for patients, allowing patients to see the healthcare provider of their choosing. We passionately believe access to providers should be a clinical choice, not a commercial decision driven by a health insurer.
We realise that as a healthcare provider your time is precious, so below you will find useful information and services aimed at supporting you and our members. From providing a secure hub, enabling you to upload your invoices, to accessing the WPA Fee Schedule to find out what amounts we will pay towards your fees, our Provider area is designed to make life easier.
Secure hub for healthcare providers
At WPA we understand the time constraints placed on busy lives and clinical practices. As such we know that waiting for a call to be answered is frustrating as well as time consuming. To address this we have upgraded the secure hub for providers where you can now self-serve in the following areas:
What you can do
Upload your invoices - this is by far the quickest way and it's FREE.
Frequently Asked Questions - check here first, this may save you a call.
Update your WPA Registration information to ensure its always accurate.
View payments made and outstanding.
Access Provider Live Chat for a speedy response to your query.
Need information to submit an EDI invoice through Healthcode - search for the customer number on your My Space hub.
