| 3 Ahpra will advise Service Australia when you receive provisional registration with the MBA. If eligible, Services Australia will send you an email notification (via your Ahpra registered email address) inviting you to apply for a provider number using Digital Provider Number Registration through the Health Professional Online Services (HPOS). To use HPOS, you will need to get an individual Provider Digital Access (PRODA) account which verifies your identity online and allows you to securely access online government services such as HPOS. You can get a PRODA account any time. Once you have provisional registration, you’ll then be able to link your PRODA account to HPOS and use the Digital Provider Number Registration process. When you first access HPOS you will be asked if you would like to receive email notifications for HPOS messages (this is highly recommended). When completing your medical provider number application, you will need the following information: + Details of the location where you will be providing health services + Your employer’s details including ABN + If you are a permanent or temporary Australian resident, or recently Once your application is approved, your Medicare provider number and prescriber number will be issued to you through HPOS message. Ensure you inform your medical administration and pharmacy departments at the hospital you will be working at.
