In order to successfully process online services you use such as Eclipse, DVA and AIR, Medicare needs to identify your practice. It does this using a unique identifier known as a Minor ID.
Traditionally, a Minor ID was only required by practices running MedicalDirector Helix, Pracsoft, or Bluechip, as these applications include functionality for generating/receiving online claims and other such Medicare services. However, with the addition of AIR Web Services to MedicalDirector Clinical 4.2, a Minor ID is now also required by all sites running Clinical 4.2 or later.
Your unique Minor ID is issued to you by MedicalDirector
1. From the Clinical main window, select Tools > Options > Practice Tab.
2. Locate
the Minor ID field and
record you Minor ID here.
3. Click to confirm.
