Get Started with MASS-eApply

I am a solo practitioner

Can I create an organisation just for myself?

Yes. Please ensure you name your organisation appropriately so other users do not join it.

I work as a solo practitioner and work in another clinic. Can I use the same account?

No, accounts cannot be assigned to two (2) organisations. Please register an account for both.

I am part of a team, clinic or group

How do MASS-eApply Organisations work?

A MASS-eApply Organisation is a single user or group of prescribers, suppliers and administration staff who work together, such as a team, unit or department in a hospital or private practice. All members must create their own user accounts. As a member of an organisation, you can view and complete applications as a team. This allows handover during employee absences and enables different team members to complete different sections of an application.

How do I create an organisation?

As part of your registration form, select "I want to register a new organisation", then complete the organisation details as prompted. Please note: organisation names cannot be duplicates or overly broad, so ensure you check whether it already exists before creating a new one.

How do I join an organisation?

As part of your registration form, select "I want to join an existing organisation" and select it from the drop-down list.

Can we register one account for multiple staff members?

No, all members of the group need their own accounts to join the existing group. We do not allow account sharing between users. Your unique login credentials replace signing application forms.

The form vault is used to start new application forms. It shows all available application forms.

What is the dashboard?

The dashboard contains forms that have been started or submitted by a member of your organisation.

Finding Applications

How do I find an application I started or submitted?

Depending on what point in the workflow the application is at, it may be listed on your dashboard under My applications in progress (Previously "Assigned to Me") and/or Advanced application search (Previously "Available Products").

All applications all have a unique identifying number.
You can continue an application that was started by you or someone in your organisation through your dashboard.

Under "My Applications in progress" you can view:

Registrations waiting approval if you are the organisation administrator (approver).

Under "Advanced Application Search" you can view:

All applications initiated, completed and submitted to MASS.
Click drop-down and select application type to view applications.

Completing Applications

How do I start an application?

Click on the application name. A pop-up will open on the right-hand side displaying the administrative and clinical eligibility.
Click "Launch this Form" to start.

Note:

The page must have all mandatory fields completed to save or progress to the next page.

Do applications need to be completed in linear order?

No. You can use the left-hand navigation menu to move between pages and complete sections in any order. However, some questions are based on answers provided earlier in the application, so jumping between pages may affect what information is displayed. To ensure your progress is saved, always use the Back and Next buttons before exiting the application.

How do signatures work?

Applicant and clinician consent is provided through the required tick-boxes and your unique MASS-eApply login credentials.

How do I find a product or item?

How I save an application?

Applications save when moving page to page by pressing the "next" and "back" buttons, so you must complete a page and move to the next for it to be saved.

Why won't it let me upload a document?

How do I remove draft applications?

Contact the MASS-eApply help desk with the application type and application ID number to request the removal of an obsolete draft.

Applicant Search

How do I search for an applicant?

The applicant search works by matching details entered against records in the MASS client database. A concession card must be entered in the client record for it to work.

When prompted, select "Yes, search for applicant" and enter the applicant's family name, date of birth and:

Concession card type and concession card number, or MASS Reference Number (B Number/URN)
Do not include spaces or symbols in the card number field.
Dates should be entered DD/MM/YYYY.
If a match is found, the applicant details will populate.
Verify the details are current and accurate before continuing.

Can I overwrite an applicant's details after using applicant search?

No.

Do not change the applicant's details to match another applicant.
You will need to start a new application as the application is linked to the MASS record that was loaded.
Contact the MASS-eApply team if the original application needs to be deleted.

What does "Unable to locate the client record" mean?

This may occur because:

The applicant's details have changed since their last application.
A different concession card was previously used.
The applicant doesn't have a concession card recorded in the MASS client database.
The applicant's name has changed.
The applicant search timed out.

Try:

Using different concession card details.
Searching using the applicant's URN/B Number.
Removing hyphens from the applicant's name.
Contacting the relevant service area if the issue continues.

Eligibility and Centrelink Verification Messages

Can an application proceed if the applicant's concession card is still being processed?

No. MASS cannot process the application until the applicant's eligibility can be verified.

Can an application proceed if the card holder doesn't consent to a Centrelink check?

No. Confirmation of eligibility is required for MASS funding and the application cannot proceed without consent.

What does "The applicant has not held a concession card for a minimum of 6 months" mean?

For applicable application types, the applicant must have held their concession card for at least six (6) months before the application can proceed. If the concession card start date is more than six months old and the error remains, contact the MASS-eApply team.

Why am I getting multiple validation messages?

This usually means the Customer Reference Number (CRN) belongs to someone other than the applicant, or the applicant's details do not match Centrelink records. Please check:

The applicant is the primary card holder.
The card details are correct.
The card is eligible for MASS services.
The CRN does not belong to another family member.

If the card details are correct, valid and the applicant is the primary card holder – the applicant will need to contact Centrelink to have their details checked.

Why are both the applicant's date of birth and given name not matching?

If both the applicant's date of birth and given name cannot be verified, you may have entered the concession card number of a family member such as a spouse, parent or child instead of the applicant. Please check:

The applicant is the primary card holder.
The concession card number belongs to the applicant.
The applicant's date of birth and name have been entered correctly.

Why are both the applicant's given name and family name not matching?

If both the applicant's given name and family name cannot be verified, the names may have been entered into the wrong fields. Please check:

The applicant's given name has been entered in the Given Name field.
The applicant's family name has been entered in the Family Name field.
The spelling matches the applicant's eligibility card.

What does "The applicant details could not be verified online at this time" mean?

The CRN may be invalid, the applicant's details may not match Centrelink records, or Centrelink services may be temporarily unavailable. Please check:

There are no spaces or hyphens in the CRN.
The applicant's name has no leading or trailing spaces.
There are no typing errors.

If the details are correct, try again later or contact the MASS-eApply Helpdesk.

If the details are correct, the applicant may need to contact Centrelink.

The applicant has moved and not updated their address.
The incorrect state is recorded by Centrelink.
The applicant's location details are protected.

The applicant may need to contact Centrelink to update or verify their details.

What does "Records indicate the applicant does not hold a valid concession card for this application" mean?

This may occur because:

The card has expired or been cancelled.
The applicant has lost their entitlement.
The applicant is not the primary card holder.
The card type is not eligible for MASS services.
Centrelink has different eligibility information recorded.

The applicant must provide an eligible concession card in their own name or contact Centrelink to correct their records.

Working in multiple MASS-eApply organisations

No. Accounts cannot be transferred between organisations.

Contact the MASS-eApply Help Desk to close or lock your existing account.

Can I use one account for multiple MASS-eApply organisations?

It depends on how the locations are set up in MASS-eApply.

If you work for multiple MASS-eApply organisations, you will need a separate account for each organisation.
If your organisation operates across multiple outreach, satellite or clinic locations and staff work across all sites, the additional locations can be added to the organisation.

Examples:

A Community Health team based in Cannon Hill that also provides services in Ipswich and Beaudesert may be able to have all locations associated with the same organisation.
A private practice with clinics at multiple locations may be able to have all locations associated with the same organisation.
If you work for two separate MASS-eApply organisations, such as Princess Alexandra Hospital and QEII Hospital, you will need separate accounts.

Contact the MASS-eApply Help Desk if additional locations need to be added to your organisation.

How do I register accounts for multiple locations?

If you need access to multiple MASS-eApply organisations, you must register a separate account for each organisation using a unique username.

Contact the MASS-eApply Help Desk if you would like your existing username updated before registering an additional account.
We recommend including an organisation abbreviation in your username to make it easier to identify the correct account when logging in (for example: PAH-XXX, HITH-XXX or QEII-XXX).
