Financial and Payroll Services

We are the provider of financial, payroll, and operational support services for the NSW Health system.

Two staff stand side by side in the office, looking at two HP computer monitors.

Supporting NSW Health

From paying suppliers to processing payroll statewide for NSW Health employees, our work keeps hospitals and health services running smoothly, so frontline staff can stay focused on patient care.

Every year we process over 2.2 million invoices and pay more than 187,000 NSW Health employees. Behind the scenes, our teams manage payments, billing, financial accounting, tax compliance, procurement cards and operational support to hospitals, agencies and suppliers across the state.

We manage financial transactions on behalf of NSW Health, including invoicing (accounts receivable), payments (accounts payable), financial accounting, tax compliance, banking, procurement cards and vendor records.

Financial Services

Our Accounts Payable team processes more than 10,000 invoices every day. We work directly with suppliers and health entities to ensure invoices are correct, submitted properly and paid on time.

Managing payments statewide for NSW Health entities means that suppliers don’t need to chase multiple hospitals or health agencies.

eInvoicing

HealthShare NSW's preference is to exchange (send and receive) invoices electronically, as eInvoicing offers stronger security compared with posted or emailed invoices and reduces the risk of invoice fraud or scams. With eInvoicing there is no need for businesses to generate paper-based or PDF invoices that are printed, posted, or emailed.

Supplier-based invoices and credits for both NSW Health purchase order (PO) and non-PO based invoices can be transmitted using the Peppol framework.

  • track invoice status anytime

Verifying your payments

To confirm you are making a correct payment:

Ensure the invoice or payment request includes the name of the NSW Health entity.

Check the NSW Health entity's ABN on the list below. Note that invoices and receipts should always quote the billing entity ABN (this is not the same as the payroll ABNs).

Direct Payments to NSW Health bank accounts

Off-system BSB (OSBSB) and Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payments

Our electronics funds transfer (EFT) option, powered by ANZ Accounts Receivable Management (ARM) accounts, ensures efficient and accurate payment processing. This method utilises Off-System BSB (OSBSB) ensuring payments you make are easily identifiable and able to be allocated against your invoice/outstanding monies.

How OSBSB works

An Off-System BSB is a specialised BSB (Bank State Branch) set up by the bank to direct payments to a specific underlying bank account. When making a payment, organisations are provided with an ARM account, a unique reference number that works like a regular bank account number but is linked to an underlying central bank account owned and operated by NSW Health. You can verify the ownership of any BSB (including OSBSB) via the Australia Payments Networkopen_in_new (Search BSB Page).

Payment instructions

As each ARM account is unique to a specific transaction, type of payment or relationship between you or your organisation and the NSW Health entity, please do not use it for other payments. Always follow the payment instructions on your invoice to ensure correct processing.

International payments

We also accept international payments via the SWIFT network using the bank details provided on the invoice or NSW Health bank account details advice letter you have received. To make a payment to NSW Health from outside of Australia please use the following information:

  • BSB: ’BSB’ as stated on invoice/letter - 6 characters
  • Account number: ‘BSBAccount number’ as stated on invoice/letter (combined with no gap) - 15 characters long.
  • Account Name: ‘NSW Health’
  • Bank Name: ANZ
  • Bank address: ANZ Centre Melbourne, Level 9 833 Collins Street, Docklands, Victoria 3008, Australia
  • ANZ SWIFT/BIC code: ANZBAU3MXXX - In some countries, the SWIFT/BIC code must be 8 characters in which case use: ANZBAU3M
BPAY

Please quote the correct details from your invoice number using the Biller ID and Biller Reference Number from your invoice.
