Many insurers prefer invoices to be submitted through Healthcode, a centralised clearing house that is integrated with the insurers. However, Healthcode charges for this service, so some providers prefer to submit their invoices directly. All major UK insurers can be billed directly, but the submission method(s) vary depending on the insurer. In the table below, we’ve outlined the ways in which you can submit directly to each of the main insurers as a provider and the corresponding time period you have to do so. In the drop down underneath it, you’ll find all the relevant details, including email addresses and links to web forms and portals used for direct submission. Please note, where we use the term portal in this article, we mean a platform where you log in as a provider and submit your invoices (and use any other features it has). By contrast, a web form is simply a web page which allows you to submit your invoices without a linked account.
