How to Manage NHS Details for a Location

Use the NHS Details section of the Location record to define and manage the NHS mailbox associated with your practice location(s). This is the official NHS mailbox used to transmit claims for your practice.

To set up NHS Mail Box settings:

1. From the User menu, select Administration.
2. From the Administration tab, select Locations, and then select the Location you are setting up.
3. Under Actions, click Edit Selected Location, and scroll to the NHS Details section. 
4. Select Performs NHS Treatment to enable the entry fields.
   
5. Enter the NHS Location # for the location.
6. In the Practice Site # field, use the arrow to search and select from existing NHS mailboxes that have been created for your practice. If the site number (NHS Mailbox) has not been created, define a unique 5-digit number and provide a description (such as the location's name).
   
   Important: Practice site numbers should rarely, if ever, be created or updated after your initial location configuration. If you attempt to edit or remove a mailbox from this location, the Mailbox Details window is displayed, with important notices about updating these fields. Read the notices carefully before continuing.
7. Enter a Username and Password for this mailbox.
8. Click the green Save button at the bottom on the location settings to save the mailbox information.
