# Bulk bill a claim

> Send a bulk bill claim for one invoice or many.

A bulk-billed fee is paid by Medicare, not the patient. You can set a service to bulk bill in **Settings › Services & fees**, or mark a single line on the invoice.

1. Open the invoice.
2. Under Payments, select **Process bulk bill**.
3. Get the patient's [assignment of benefit](https://docs.bilby.health/medicare/assignment-of-benefit.md).

The invoice stays unpaid until Medicare accepts the claim.

## Bulk bill several invoices at once

1. On the **Billing** page, select **Bulk bill**.
2. Choose the practitioner and tick the invoices.
3. Select **Review batch**, check the claim, then select **Submit to Medicare**.

Medicare's report usually arrives overnight.
