GP ACI news - new error causing issues in PRODA

Many General Practices have been experiencing a new error message that is causing issues in PRODA when attempting to link the provider to a GPACI patient in HPOS.

Department of Health and Aged Care has received confirmation from Services Australia that this is a new error. It has come to their attention through the help desk as well as through PHNs, and they are working with the systems team on a fix.

The fix is expected to go live in December.

In the interim, the explanation is:

  • The 0831 warning displays when a provider is not eligible for the full period that the incentive indicator is assigned to the patient. Please note, this is not an error and does not restrict the ability for a practice to add an incentive indicator or assign a responsible provider. 
  • As this is only a warning message, the user can continue by selecting ‘confirm’ again after the message appears to proceed with linking/adding the responsible provider.
  • Operators may also have to select ‘save’ twice.

Any further advice from Services Australia will be circulated once received.
