What is the Saudi Billing System?
- One of the Council of Health Insurance's strategic goals is to enable providers and payers to improve their services to beneficiaries with progressive policies to help in the transformation towards value-based care.
- The Council of Health Insurance, in alignment with the standards of the Saudi Health Council, developed the Saudi Billing System (SBS) which is a modification of the Australian Classification of Health Interventions (ACHI), modified and enhanced to serve the Saudi health insurance market for classification and billing purposes.
- Standardizes the coding and reporting and billing of services, interventions, and procedures in both admitted and non-admitted care settings providing more transparency and improving healthcare delivery.
- Regular maintenance and updates
