UPDATED ITEMS FILE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
• WAG – fees for items 18213, 18216 and 18225 have been corrected (WAG errors).
• ADF_Bupa fees have been updated, with only minor changes.
• Most health funds have provided an update effective January 2020. The main changes are to the fees for item 591, but there are a number of other miscellaneous fee updates of minor importance.
• A new set of fee schedules for Grand United has been inserted (see below), as there are now some differences to the AHSA schedules.

NEW SCHEDULES FOR GRAND UNITED
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In November 2018, Grand United left the AHSA, but continued to maintain an identical fee schedule. Beginning in Jan 2020, GUH made some changes to their schedule that are different to the AHSA schedule, so it has become necessary to create a new set of schedules for Grand United in AA. These are now available in the funds drop-down list on the Items tab, labelled GUH_ACT, GUH_NSW etc with a separate schedule for each state. Ideally, you should change the fee schedule for Grand United in your addresses lookup table so that the GUH schedule is now used instead of AHSA. The change will look like the attached image.
If the fee schedule is left at AHSA, there are currently only a small number of items where the fees differ between GUH and AHSA (18297, 20142, 20144, 20145, 20410, 21922, 21926, 21936, 21952, 32222, 32223, 32224, 32225, 32226, 32227, 32228, 591). However, this will not necessarily be the case in the future, and we will be maintaining separate schedules for GUH and AHSA from now on.
