SAAQ · Case tracking
Track Québec auto-insurance cases and bill them your way.
Québec road-accident patients are covered by the SAAQ, which authorises treatment and expects documentation as care progresses. Clinicmaster gives you the case management side of that work: the case is tagged as the SAAQ, authorised visits and coverage are tracked, the documentation the program expects is produced from templates, and you invoice the SAAQ from the same ledger as every other payer. What it does not do is submit to the SAAQ electronically — no Clinicmaster integration exists for that.
SAAQ in Clinicmaster
The SAAQ is Québec’s public auto-insurance body, covering people injured in road accidents. In Clinicmaster, SAAQ is a case type — not an electronic billing channel. That means you can run the clinical and administrative side of these cases properly: classify them, track authorised visits and coverage, produce the required reports from templates, invoice the payer, and report on the work. Submitting the claim to the SAAQ remains your team's step, done the way that payer requires.
What Clinicmaster does for SAAQ cases.
Everything below is real. There is no electronic submission to the SAAQ — so the value is in making the case, the paperwork and the invoice manageable.
Cases classified by payer
A case is tagged as the SAAQ, which makes this work a distinct, filterable, reportable group rather than something mixed in with your private and public payers.
Authorised visits tracked
Approved visit counts and case dates are held on the case, so treating beyond what the payer authorised is something you can see coming rather than discover at invoicing.
Required documentation from templates
The reports and forms the SAAQ expects are produced from configurable templates against the chart, so the paperwork is generated from the clinical record rather than retyped.
Invoice the payer from one ledger
the SAAQ invoices are raised through the same accounting path as every other funder, so they appear in the same receivables and financial reporting.
Split billing across payers
Where a patient’s care is shared between the payer and another party, billing splits by coverage so each portion is invoiced to the right payer.
Reportable as its own payer
Because the case type is stored on the case, you can report on the SAAQ volume, revenue and outstanding balances specifically.
From referral to invoiced the SAAQ case.
The case is opened as the SAAQ.
Tagging the case by payer type is what makes the work identifiable, and it drives the templates, coverage tracking and reporting that follow.
Care is delivered and recorded.
Visits are tracked against what was authorised, and the reports the SAAQ requires are produced from templates against the chart.
You invoice, then send it your way.
The invoice is raised to the SAAQ through the normal ledger. Getting it to the payer is your team's step — by the payer's own portal, form or process.
What this is — and is not
Stated plainly, because it matters: Clinicmaster does not submit claims to the SAAQ electronically, and does not post the SAAQ remittances automatically. In the product the SAAQ is a case type, not a billing integration. You track the case, produce the documentation and raise the invoice here; sending it to the SAAQ and recording the payment are manual steps. There are dossier and attendance tables in the database for SAAQ, but no submission or payment code uses them — so treat SAAQ as case tracking only. If you need automated electronic submission, the programs that genuinely have it are listed on regional billing.
What Clinicmaster tracks on a the SAAQ case.
Deliberately scoped. Every item below is a real capability, and nothing here implies a submission channel that does not exist in the product.
