Practishare / Billing arrangements
Billing arrangements

However your practitioners are paid, we've got it covered.

Every clinic runs a mix — a commission collector here, a self-collector there, maybe a salaried associate. Practishare settles each one correctly, on its own terms, in the same billing run.

💳
Self-collector
They take payment straight from the patient — so it's the clinic that's owed a share back, not the other way round.
  • Patient paysThe practitioner, directly
  • Practishare settlesThe clinic's share, billed back to them
  • GST followsThe clinic's own registration
  • Xero documentTax Invoice
🤝
Commission collector
The clinic banks the patient's payment and pays the practitioner their agreed percentage.
  • Patient paysThe clinic
  • Practishare settlesTheir percentage, paid out to them
  • GST followsTheir own registration
  • Xero documentRCTI (bill)
🏢
Agency collector
The clinic collects on the practitioner's behalf and charges a service fee for doing it.
  • Patient paysThe clinic, on their behalf
  • Practishare settlesWhat's left after the clinic's service fee
  • GST followsThe clinic's registration, on the fee only
  • Xero documentRCTI (bill)
👤
Employee
Salaried or paid hourly — not tied to what any one patient paid on any one day.
  • Patient paysThe clinic
  • Practishare settlesNothing per-visit — tracked against real appointment revenue for margin reporting instead
  • GST followsN/A — not a commercial settlement
  • Xero documentNone — payroll runs outside Practishare

Why it matters

One clinic, four arrangements, no manual math.

✓
Mixed arrangements in one run
A clinic with three commission collectors, a self-collector and a salaried associate settles all of them in the same billing period — each by their own configured arrangement.
✓
Item-level rules, not one flat percentage
A standard consult, a concession, a DVA visit, an EPC or a cancellation fee can each settle by their own rule — nothing gets guessed at from the invoice price alone.
✓
GST follows the right party, automatically
A commission or agency arrangement follows the practitioner's own GST registration; a self-collector's charge-back follows the clinic's — never a single blanket assumption.
✓
Retail products never dilute a settlement
A mixed invoice is split into treatment and product before it's settled — stock sales stay the clinic's, whichever arrangement the practitioner is on.
Questions

Billing arrangements FAQ

Can practitioners at the same clinic be on different arrangements?
Yes — that's the normal case, not an edge case. Each practitioner has their own arrangement configured, and a single billing run settles every one of them correctly at once.
Can one practitioner mix a commission rate with flat-fee items?
Yes — settlement rules apply per invoice line, not per practitioner. A practitioner can earn their usual percentage on standard consults while a cancellation fee or case-conference item settles on its own separate rule.
What if a practitioner switches arrangement partway through a period?
Update their contract type in Practishare when it changes — new invoices settle under the new arrangement from that point on, without touching anything already approved.
Does this need Xero?
For the three revenue-share arrangements, yes — settlements post as RCTIs or Tax Invoices with GST and ABNs handled correctly. See Accounting integrations for details.
