Alternate Payers

The Payers-Alt Payers master file allows you to create an alternate payer and associate the alternate payer to a payer in the Payers master file. You can associate the same alternate payer to multiple payers or associate multiple alternate payers to a payer. When you bill an encounter with a payer having alternate payers, separate claims can be generated simultaneously. For example, you set up a payer to bill medical services such as an office visit (99213). Now, when you bill a behavioral health service for substance abuse therapy, the claim may go to a trading partner where the diagnosis is F11.10. But when the same substance abuse therapy is rendered for a patient with a mental health disorder, such as depression, the claim goes to the Department of Mental Health. You can also hide or show an alternate payer by selecting open menu and then selecting Hide or Un-hide. You can generate Alternate Payer Listing report from the Payers-Alt Payers master file.
