Healthcare Provider Portal

The Healthcare Provider Portal provides a self-service alternative for healthcare providers who don’t have access to compatible software to integrate with the NCSR. The portal allows you to access and submit screening data for the bowel, cervical and lung cancer screening programs.

• Access patient screening information and alerts: Stay informed with updates on patient screening status, including overdue and follow-up alerts.
• View and submit screening results: Including colonoscopy, colposcopy biopsy findings or radiology reports, ensuring accurate program participation.
• Order bowel screening program test kits: Directly to a patient’s address or record when you have issued one to a patient during a consultation as part of the alternative access to kits model (bulk orders are made through the Healthcare Provider Portal).
• Verify and update patient contact details and demographic information: To assist with maintaining up-to-date and accurate screening records and support improved reporting.
• View screening program-related correspondence: Stay updated with program communications to track your patient’s screening journey.
• Nominate healthcare providers or personal representatives: Assign a healthcare provider or personal representative to ensure comprehensive patient care.

Healthcare providers and support staff who require access to patient information held within the NCSR need one of the following levels of access:

Follow the instructions in the Healthcare Provider Portal User Guide, or provide your MPN to the Contact Centre Operator when calling the NCSR.

A Register Identifier Number (RIN) is a unique number used to authenticate healthcare providers who do not have access to a Medicare Provider Number.

The number is used to enable these providers secure access to their patient’s cancer screening information via the Healthcare Provider Portal or when calling the Contact Centre.

Depending on the requirements of the state or territory, healthcare providers who deliver services across multiple locations may have multiple Register Identifier Numbers.

To register for a RIN and gain access to participant information held in the NCSR, you will need to complete the form below or call the Contact Centre on 1800 627 701 and provide the following information:

• full name
• clinic/practice name and phone number

If you continue to experience technical issues after referring to these guides, call 1800 627 701 and speak to a member of our Contact Centre, or you can book in a time to receive a call back.
