From 24 hours after the email has been sent to the Medicare Provider Number team, we can call the phone number 132150 to confirm that they have received these documents, ask them to check and make sure they aren’t missing any documents, and also ask what their current number of processing days is.
Once your application has been sent to the Medicare Applications Team, processing may take up to 28 calendar days, depending on processing volumes. While some applications are completed sooner (around 14 calendar days), applicants should allow up to 28 calendar days.
A letter is sent to the address in your MPN form, but calling this number is faster.
You need to be in Australia to place a phone call to this 132150 number.
