How to gain access:
Access can be provided to:
- Healthcare professionals with a Medicare provider number (MPN),
- Nurses and medical practice/lab staff without a MPN acting as a delegate of a healthcare provider with a MPN, or
- Nurses and healthcare workers using a Register Identifier Number – a unique number to authenticate cervical screening test providers not eligible for an MPN.
To access the portal, you will need a PRODA account. PRODA (or Provider Digital Access) is an online identity verification and authentication system used to enable secure access to government online services.
