Profession working set
Log VR bulk-billing (70 to 75% split), VR mixed and private (60 to 70%), non-VR (60 to 65%), and rural flat-day cover side by side. Enter each percentage shift's billings when they arrive and Sessional calculates your share. Shifts you bill yourself can then be invoiced; agency shifts are tracked without an invoice.
Most locum GPs hold 5 to 15 provider numbers. Sessional tags every shift to the right site so your rebates, A1 and A2 items, after-hours billing, and workplace stats reconcile cleanly at year end.
FRACGP, FACRRM, VR status, 19AB and 19AA restrictions and end dates, prescriber number, and S8 authority all stored against your profile. Expiry reminders so your Medicare provider number does not lapse before you notice.
Sessional records an MMM postcode estimate on the workplace when classification data is available. Enter the agreed shift rate yourself and confirm any rural loading, travel and accommodation terms in the written offer. Check the workplace address and the relevant program guidance before relying on a postcode category.
Contractor super sits on you, not the clinic. Sessional flags unpaid SG where an arrangement looks PAYG, tracks your voluntary concessional contributions against the $32,500 cap, and models GST, Medicare levy, and income tax across your full income (agency plus direct plus percentage-of-billings) so you know what to set aside.
01 | State by state
AUAHPRA is national. Secondary credentials are not.Secondary credentials move state by state. Working with Children: NSW, VIC, SA use WWCC; QLD issues the Blue Card; WA issues a WWC Card; TAS and ACT use WWVP; NT uses the Ochre Card. S8 prescribing authority is state-regulated (one state does not grant another). Medicare provider numbers are tied to each site you work at. Sessional stores the current state label against your profile so the prompts match your jurisdiction.

Yes. Each shift is logged with a rate type: hourly, daily, per-session, or percentage of billings. For a percentage-of-billings shift you record the agreed percentage, then the billing revenue once it is known, and Sessional calculates your share for the earnings dashboard and tax planner. Whether you invoice it depends on how you are paid: a shift you bill yourself can be invoiced once its billings are entered, while agency and PAYG shifts are recorded without an invoice.
