Linking the New Payee ID to a Bank Account
Note: The new Payee ID only needs to be linked to a bank account if payments will be received from MSP or other payers, such as WCB or ICBC. If all billing will be $0 amounts (shadow billing) to MSP, then the new Payee ID does not need to be linked to a bank account.
To link the new Payee ID to a bank account, complete Form #2832 ("Application for Direct Bank Payment from Medical Services Plan (MSP) or Request for Change of Banking Information") and submit it to Teleplan.
